"This guy is an asshole, but his athletes are strong as hell." I'm not a nice coach. Most clients arrive to me as ego-soothed babies in plush baskets. My first job is to dump the basket and get the client moving outside traditional physical structures. Like actual babies, some cry, recoil, or run away. Those that stay experience the genesis of true performance. My own story is not dissimilar from the majority of my clients. I was pumping some iron in the gym, convinced of my physical superiority when a friend invited me to yoga. Easy, I thought. I thought wrong. It was this single process of trying something new and failing so miserably that began my exploration of physical culture, movement, and eventually climbing. Without that class and that failure, I would be lost in a sea of large muscles without function. Failure and humility are key. Buy Climb With Power Level #1 and fail magnificently until every movement becomes second nature.
