TBP 168 :: Coach Alex Stiger on Training Methods for Females

Females in Climbing

In this episode I talk with Coach Alex Stiger about how females can train more efficiently and effectively using their menstrual cycle as a guide.

Alex Stiger is a dedicated climber who lives in Longmont, Colorado. She's sent up to 5.13d and is an avid boulderer. She improved her climbing very quickly using efficient training. She is a Certified Personal Trainer, Sports Performance Coach, TRX certified, and she's completed Stacy Sims' Women Are Not Small Men course.

In this episode we talk all about the specific needs of females in training for climbing. We cover topics like what to expect during certain weeks of your cycle, how to train during each of them, and why Alex (and so many females) was in denial about women needing to train differently than men for so long.
