The story began in the euphoria of the summer of 1998, because he dreamed that he too would become world champion.
No matter his climbing level, his age, his chances, he wanted it so intensely that he had no doubt it would come true. With determination, dedication and passion, he devoted the following twenty years to this adventure that delivered on all its promises…
This guide, structured like an A-to-Z reference, answers the questions of climbers who want to improve, whether in sport climbing or bouldering. The author, who does not believe in miracle formulas and even less in ready-made answers, draws the best from his experience to support athletes in their training with clear short, medium and long-term goals in mind.
Suited to all levels and all profiles, this guide explores in an original way both the technical aspects (building your profile, technique, tactics, warm-up, positions, route reading) and the aspects related to nutrition and mental strength.
Illuminated by the experiences of Adam Ondra, Alex Megos, Margo Hayes and many others, these pages are his opportunity to provide the right ingredients for all levels, and for all dreams…
