Will Anglin is a 27 year-old climber and head climbing trainer at Earth Treks in Golden, CO. He minored in Exercise Physiology in college and is a certified personal trainer, and he's studied climbing training quite a bit. He trains people in person and online. One of the reasons I wanted to interview him is that he's not only a well-respected trainer, but also a prolific climber himself, having sent V13 and 5.14.

He has a lot to say about training, and this was a dense conversation (in the best way possible).

\n
• The importance of strength training
\n
• Difference between strength and power
\n
• His weekly training schedule during 50-60 hour work weeks
\n
• Whether or not you should train to exhaustion
\n
• Why he thinks using a weight vest during campusing is "safer" than not
\n
• Who should be campusing
\n
• Why he does weighted pull ups and why you should maybe not
\n

\n
• Will's website
\n
• Tension Climbing (coming soon)
\n
• Will's article on finger strength training
\n
• I'm doing nutrition consults one-on-one with people again on a limited basis. If you're interested, email neely@trainingbeta.com

If you haven't heard of the ArmAid yet, definitely give it a look-see. It's a nutcracker-type self-massage tool for your poor, overused arms, and it actually works.

We wrote a glowing review about it here.\xa0\xa0Use the code "climb" at checkout for a 10% discount!
