JStar is one of the best sport climbers in the world, so it took a ton of courage for him to completely overhaul a training routine that took him to 14d (9a), but he did it anyway. We talk about the how and the why, what he learned from it, and where he's going from here.

You can find Jonathan at http://www.jstarinorbit.com, where he keeps what is likely the best blog in all of climbing. Definitely go check out his recent posts on Pachamama, a 15a that after 8 weeks of effort, he had to walk away from.

We don't tweet. We scream like eagles.
