Why subscribe?

For many years, I wrote about climbing training on the Climb Strong website. Our focus at CS has evolved into coaching and writing training programs, so we’ve decided to put my blog-style articles and stories over here. Almost everything I write here is free, but not everything. Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and publication archives.
