FAQ
Crux Academy is for any climber looking to get the tools and training to push into the next grade scale while preventing injury. Climbers must have been climbing at least for one year.
Nine deep dive sessions with one common goal–to improve your climbing for the long haul. In these sessions you’ll explore strength training, injury prevention, proper warm-up/cool down, and differing climbing techniques through the lens of a sports performance coach, physical therapist, climbing coach, and yoga/fitness coach. By the end of these sessions, you’ll leave with a solid projecting and training plan for climbing and an injury prevention programmed brain that’s impossible to ignore.
Most important thing to bring: your questions. Beyond that, clothes that you’re comfortable working out in. There will be a number of sessions where you’ll be asked to bring your climbing shoes and chalk, but bring them to every session if you plan to climb afterwards just for fun.
