What’s really holding a climber back?

In this episode, I talk about diagnosis - the process of identifying the real limiter behind poor performance or slow progress.

Very often, the thing that looks like the problem is only the symptom. What feels like a strength issue may actually be a problem with observation, execution, tactics, fear, or familiarity.

In this episode, I explore:

• symptoms vs causes
• why observation matters
• how patterns shape performance
• why climbers often solve the wrong problem
• when familiarity with a climb matters more than abstract training

I also share stories from my own climbing, including lessons from Pleasant Valley Sunday and Serendipity.
