I’m Strong Enough. So Why Can’t I Do This? | Ep08

Описание: I’ve been climbing for a long time.
I’m strong enough to pull hard moves.

So why do these climbs keep shutting me down?

In this session, I went back to the bouldering gym to test something that’s been bothering me for a while. As the grades creep up, the moves aren’t just harder. They’re more coordinated, more precise, and less forgiving. Dynamic jumps that used to feel simple suddenly feel awkward and out of control.

This video isn’t about grades or sending everything. It’s about figuring out whether gaps in coordination, balance, and decision-making are what’s really holding me back. And whether those skills can still be improved, even after years of climbing the same level.

Some climbs go.
Some don’t.

But each attempt reveals something important about how I’ve been climbing, and what needs to change if I want to keep improving and keep having bigger adventures outside.

If you’ve ever felt strong but still stuck, you’re not alone.

This channel is about outdoor climbing, training, and dumb adventures that don’t always go to plan.

I’m 45, trying to get better at climbing without pretending it’s easy, and documenting the process honestly. Some days it’s progress. Some days it’s exposure, fear, or failure.

If you like real outdoor experiences, learning through mistakes, and long-form adventure storytelling, you’re in the right place.

New episodes follow an ongoing season arc.
