This a two-part deep dive into designing a comprehensive, long-term systems approach to training. Coach @eric_horst unpacks—in rich detail—how systems actually function, and he highlights how transformative climbers throughout history “shake up the box” with innovative, highly effective methods to achieve big goals and push the boundaries of our sport.
In Part 1 (#122), Eric blends a concise climbing history lesson with an engineer-like breakdown of how intelligent systems operate. Part 2 (#123) of this series will deliver the actionable strategies you can use to build a personalized, high-performance training system for this winter…and for many seasons to come.
Eric emphasizes that as climbers progress beyond the beginner stage, climbing and training grow increasingly complex—requiring intentional, organized, and year-round development of strength, technique, mental skills, recovery habits, nutrition, and lifestyle management. Rather than ad-lib sessions or singular-focus programs (like only training strength), climbers need a comprehensive system fine-tuned daily and seasonally.
This is an entertaining and thought-provoking episode—so lean in, listen closely, and get ready to feel inspired, challenged, and equipped to level-up your modus operandi at the crag, in the gym, at home, and in everything you do!
