Review: Truly definitive - This has so much great information in one, easy-to-digest book. I coach youth and adult climbers, and use this to guide my training plans, as well as for my own personal training. It has everything you need in one place, and Horst's website includes additional, supplementary info. Great for any climber, it has modification information for beginner to advanced training needs.
Review: I would recommend this book to any climber regardless of experience or ... - I would recommend this book to any climber regardless of experience or even interest in training. If you're even thinking about getting it I'd just pick it up now it's great. If you want more info, continue reading. From what I have seen it is the most thorough book on the state of climbing today and covers a wide variety of topics including those you might not associate with "training" including mental aspects of climbing, injury prevention and treatment, nutrition, technique, etc. The author's decades of experience and scientific approach to the sport really shine here to bring you what I would imagine to be the equivalent of a year of coaching from the best coaches in the world. About the only thing I could find fault with is the sheer volume of knowledge and guidance in this book is so large, which honestly is a good thing. I come back to it now and then and am always excited to try more recommendations and share useful tidbits with my fellow climbing friends. Love it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I wanted to wait until I finished the book
*by C***B on January 25, 2023*

I am almost done and I have to say: this is one of the best resources for training for climbing. I have been seriously rock climbing for about 15 months now and have climbed mostly in the gym but a few outdoor trips. In that time, I have sent v5 and 5.10c (on top rope) out doors and v6 and 5.11 indoors. This book has been instrumental in guiding the way I think about climbing, training, and nutrition. The book goes into detail about the physics and biomechanics of climbing which I thoroughly enjoyed. Great addition for all climbers in their training repertoire.
