Training and beta videos.
Alternative Beta recognizes that we are all different and move differently on rocks. We have different body types, strengths and weaknesses that make every climb unique to us.
Alternative Beta videos dissect why certain beta work and others don't, and compare beta from different body types to help you see what might work for you.

Dynamic Planks Home Workout
I've never been a fan of static planks. To me, how long you can plank doesn't directly correlate to how strong your core is. And I've never worked too much specifically on my core other than compound movements that required core strength.
A few years ago, I stumbled upon this set of dynamic planks and it made so much more sense to me. It was very tough for me then and still challenging for me now. I've used it from time to time as a benchmark test and am looking to use it more as a regular workout.
It kind of gets progressively more difficult and works everything from shoulder wrist stability to legs. Give it a try and see how far you can go (btw how did you like the names I came up with? 😛). Or tag someone to try this challenge! Remember form is key! I tried 10 reps each exercise and 3 sets and this was me at the end 🥵

Second lap of the climb and uglier than I'd like it to be...

Good flows on good holds. Topout can be tricky.

Great flow with the crux being hitting the lip, followed by a slightly tricky topout.

Most unique finish of a boulder I've done to date, going through a hole. For some, that's a crux :P

so great! What's your height and ape index? the move to come out from the toe hook without cutting feet was amazing!
I'm 5'7 with -2 or -3 depending on the day.. keep the core tight and dig the toe in there, but definitely helps to have the length!
Thank you!!!
hell yeah! such a great boulder.
What an encouraging yet absent spotter!!
What spotter? ;)
Is 25 good for training as well? I am bulding my wall but can not go more than 27 degrees because of the space...
I would think so! 25 makes some of the moonboard problems quite a bit easier since some of the holds depend a lot on the angle, but it's still a good training tool for dynamic moves and endurance. If you are customizing your holds, depends on your level, you can go smaller and slopier than the normal moonboard holds.
@@alternativebeta I installed my first holds yesterday, it is good, but I have to get to know the wall and set some good problems 😊
great content! i built a home moonboard and this helped me decide to change it from 40 to 25. thanks!
Oh thanks! Great to know that it helped!
Why?
Jordan E im relatively new and 40 is just to hard for me
@@bossclimbs it was for me too. I could barely lift my whale-like body off the mats on the 40 degree. I stuck with it and am working my way through the 6a+ benchmarks now and have begun venturing into the 6b+ and 6c level. Point is, training works if you are consistent. I’m probably thee strongest I’ve ever been after 6 months of progressive hangboarding and 40 degree Moonboard.
Nice! Great beta. I kind of knew the moves, but never had the strength or technique from my first time in Bishop in 2015 when I first tried it. Have not tried since then, but looking forward to trying it next time. Thanks.
You got it!
That toe to bar was fire. Really good form
Nice climb!
love the videos! would you consider doing some more classics in the V0-V3 range?
Sure, let me know if you have any specific problems in mind!
Great video. I love the concept and it is executed well. Good beta, too.
Thank you!
