TBP 040 :: Nina Williams on Training for V13, Comps, and Diet

About Nina Williams

Nina Williams is a boulderer (and budding trad climber) who lives and trains in Boulder, CO. She's climbed V13 and she won the Dark Horse comp in 2015, but she spends most of her energy climbing outdoors and training for that. Being a full-time sponsored climber, she's able to travel often, and she's spent time in Australia, South Africa, Switzerland, Hueco Tanks, and other popular climbing destinations. I sat down with Nina to talk about how she trains, what she eats, her attitude toward climbing, and what it's like training and climbing with Alex Puccio.

What We Talked About

• Why she did highball boulders and why she doesn't anymore
• Where her climbing is going
• Why trad climbing is so satisfying to her
• How she changed her approach to comp climbing
• Who trains her
• Her home training set up
• What she eats and why
