      Renting a space to have a training center is expensive, especially in Switzerland. It’s probably an older building with bad insulation. Maybe used to be a factory building or something. I think we can safely assume they warm up adequately before testing ;)

      Hii, i haven’t any lead programs yet but do plan on adding some! Can be done quite fast if you’d like them asap! You could also accommodate some of the bouldering plans to lead and if you have any questions, you can directly ask me on Discord! And otherwise, the price is in dollars but i guess will be automatically changed to euros by the bank (?).

  • @adamhaas141
    @adamhaas141 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Since you're a boulder specialist, you should be a careful with trying to improve your endurance metrics. It's well documented in sports science literature that excelling in one limits the other (to some extent). I saw this pattern demonstrated very clearly in a video where Stefano Ghisolfi was trying to improve his endurance before working on Silence. He was tested before and after the training block. And, sure enough, his endurance numbers went up while his power numbers went down. How much you should emphasize power versus endurance as a boulderer is a great discussion for you to have with your coaches. Sneaking in a little extra endurance training could be counterproductive for your goals, and nobody wants that! We all want to see you succeed!!😃

    • @sofya_yokoyama
      @sofya_yokoyama 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Oh yeah for sure! Gaining in endurance is def not in my goals for bouldering! I like to focus a lot more on my power endurance which works quite well with max strength for me. Being able to give many 100% attempts in little time!

      I would like to see the coaches debrief. Did you have training notes for the period leading upto your best max reach year? Does the Swiss team employ mobility and flexibility specialists to help the “ consistently inflexible”athletes. Great insight, congratulations too on your success so far. I hope you have another great year.

    • @sofya_yokoyama
      @sofya_yokoyama 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yess so i have training notes over the past couple of years for (almost) every pre-season. But the conclusion of my debrief with my coaches at the end of last season was to focus less on the physical aspects and more on the technical side like slabs, coordo but also just hard bouldering (and still a bit of finger strength). So it’s also okay to see a bit of regression in some tests but progress (like max finger pull) or same in others (like max pull-up). As for flexibility, i’ve gone over with the coaches & physio on what i can do. It’s just my fault on being inconsistent in my morning/evening stretches 😅 And thanks!! 🙏🏼

  • @2Stalky
    @2Stalky 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Nicely informative and overall interesting video! :) How do you stay positive when comparing raw data such as this? I personally come from running and seeing decreasing results sometimes made me quite sad and demotivated as I struggled to understand why is it worse.

    • @sofya_yokoyama
      @sofya_yokoyama 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yeah i totally understand, i have definitely felt the same sometimes! I think what’s important is to remember that you’re putting in all the effort you can and that progress has its ups and downs. And the results you see aren’t always directly connected to how you feel! There have been times where I have felt soooo strong on the wall but my physical tests haven’t been as good. And i know that there are phases in my training where i will focus on one thing more than others which means i might lost a bit of strength but in hopes to get stronger in something else, which is also okay! And last thing, i’ve been trying to change my mindset around seeing the results: instead of thinking “ah man i have regressed, why is worse” (which is using negative words), i try to be more like “okay, what can i do better? Is there anything i can work on differently?” which gives more positive vibes!

    • @TheValinov
      @TheValinov 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      but she didn't get worse, the results are not comparable with the last year.... she actualy got better in finger strenght! and the rest was nearly the same a s the last years. the endurance test means nothing, because the %BW instead of %MAX is totally different. its like comparing your average speed on a sprint with average speed in a marathon.

    "Ich kan nicht" wondering what's your first language if you don't mind me asking ? I remember having a discussion with a guy in Geneva who was a Brit married to a Swiss Italian living in Geneva but having lived in Zurich before, and he said that his 3 kids all had different mother tongues and all basically spoke 4 languages by age 7. And having heard you now speak German on top of French and English, I seems like a similar-ish situation ? Good luck for the winter training and hope to see you in a bunch of World Cup semis next year !
