BOARD MEETINGS | Top Ways Climbers Are Holding Themselves Back

In this episode, Kris and Nate are joined by coach Lauren Abernathy and nutritionist Caitlin Holmes of The Average Climber Podcast. The four discuss some of the biggest ways they see climbers getting in their own way.

They chat about the impact that shifting your perspective can have, how easy it can be to get caught up in comparing yourself to others, and why reading all the Mountain Project comments on that route you’re psyched to check out might not be the best idea.

Plus, they’ll answer a question that’s been plaguing climbers for ages: what’s the best brand of gummy bears?
