Podcast: Energy System Training (and more!)

I recently sat down with an old friend, Kris “Odub” Hampton, to talk about my just released (3rd) edition of Training for Climbing. In this one-hour podcast, Kris digs into a few of the new training concepts explored in this new book–you’ll learn about the importance of stabilizer-muscle training, daily undulating periodization, energy system training, and much more. Enjoy!

You can subscribe to Kris’ podcasts on iTunes or via his website PowerCompanyClimbing.com.
