Improve Your Climbing Technique: No Hands Climbing!

- No hands climbing! Yup, this often feels like a bit of a party trick, but underneath all the silliness, it’s actually one of the best “secret” exercises or tools to great climbing technique.
The reason why, is that by eliminating the use of hands on the wall, you have to really learn how to use your hips, centre of gravity, momentum and feet in a very efficient and effective manner. No longer can you just “cheat” your way through problems by pulling harder. You actually have to think and climb well!
In this video, Tom guides you through some of the methods he uses and covers the “what, how and why” of hands-free climbing. We’ve got more videos on this topic coming soon, so keep an eye out!
Intro: (0:00)
Hip Position: (2:35)
Centre of gravity: (9:23)
Body position for dynamic moves: (13:46)
Outro: (18:53)

God this is a great video. I'm 62 and have been climbing for 46 years,. I used to do a lot of no hands boulder problems but need to get back at it after watching this video. My top 50's grades are 13b and V9 and I'm hoping to top them in my 60's.
Hell yeah Ward!
5.13b and V9 at 60 is insane. I'm halfway through 21, have climbed V6-, and am hoping for V10 by 26. You are an inspiration!
Crazy that I'm getting all these amazing climbing tips for free. Great video!
We've just finished editing our outdoor bouldering video - look out for it on Monday!
My friends are part time bouldering coaches but I'm a noob. One time I was struggling to step onto a ledge, exactly like 7:53. Your video just solved the mystery in my mind and proves to be more help than my friends combined. Thank you so much. Liked and subscribed.
I love it. Climbing is largely mathematics and the part of that I love is that you can either calculate the equation from the ground or you can sense, feel and intuit a workable equation whilst you climb. Its such a diverse and explorative process, I love it.
Awesome clip! One of my favorite things in climbing are the critical assessments of the physics and center of gravity that come into play when solving a boulder problem! Such good inputs, perfectly exemplified and argumented. Top video, keep it up Lattice!
I try to do this occasionally, it's really good practice. Lots of gyms don't have very many slabby walls however, which limits this practice a bit.
Vertical aretes can be used if really desperate... as can 1-arm climbing 😎
Same problem here. Another thing you can try on vertical problems is to try and not tense your forearm. Or after every move, get into a position where you can let go of your hands.
@@ThundersLeague yup! Or spend loads of time trying to find hands-off positions on the walls at your gym. Still a great skill!
@@LatticeTraining KNEEBAR! Kneebar! (he yells)
This is so clear and well put together. Incredibly helpful
Your body control is so impressive! Well done! Thanks for sharing!
Why did I miss this video? Great stuff! There are so many videos about strength, but we need more like this, where we learn more about how to get more with technique and not just brute strength.
These instructionals are so so useful and fantastic!!! Do more do more 🤩🤩🤩
Don’t worry, we are!
Said it twice for effect
Thanks, incredible quality teaching
Love it. Never think about climbing in this angle. Thanks!
your step by step tutorial is invaluable, Can't wait to se more.
Useful stuff as ever Tom. Thanks
Been seeing similar limb elimination exercises on some of the videos with Louis Parkinson recently, nice to see more of the same from you guys. Body awareness is self awareness
Very helpful demonstration! Thanks for your time! It would be nice to see a video on body positioning on a tilted wall
Explaining technique without a editing or cuts really shows how good of a trainer he is.
This is the best tutorial/explanation I have ever seen.
It's really cool you do these in one take :D
These are so awesome! Well done
Amazing recommendations!!! Thanks for the tips!!!
This is extremely cool and useful! Thank you!
Really instructive video! thank you
Simple and informative! I'll use this! Cheers
Absolutely great tips to get better!
Brilliantly explained mate
Great video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Honestly these are probably the best instructions out on TH-cam, so grateful!
More coming every week! :-)
i do really like that the problems are hard enough to show the tipping point with perfect technique.
Perfect timing for lock down :)
amazing content as always!
I've never tried this before!! thanks for the video! very keen to give it a go :)
Fantastic knowledge 💪🙌 thanks a lot!! 🙏
Fantastic. Thanks.
Another fantastic video!
You guys make amazing videos! Thank you so much!
Great information. Thanks!
This was so good. Thanks!
Cool video! Love it!
Great video. Thank you!
This is amazing content. Why didn't I see this before... Thank you so much!!
8:58
That's me every time I hit the deck after a dynamic move.
Thank you so much for the videos by the way! Very educational and full of useful tips.
It's the old-man beta :)
i thought i was the only
one
In all of the world there's only 3 gyms with good soft pads you can fall 10ft down flat and it's fine: Seattle Bouldering Project, Austin Bouldering Project, and Minneapolis Bouldering Project.
It boggles my mind people will boulder on anything else given the option.
@@TheCorrectionist1984 Three gyms in all the world? That's a pretty wild statement. I know of about five in the Atlanta area alone
very helpful!
Thanks for your sharing
Love these, thanks!
Good to hear it! Another one out tomorrow :-)
Thank you sir i need this
Great content!
I love such a lessons. More technique, less power. Let's make climbing fun again ;)
I would argue it’s fun either way! Depends on many factors, I love explosive, strong, and dynamic moves but my short stature (5’4”) calls for that a lot of the time. However I also love the slow, methodical, technique approach to those truly challenging climbs as well!
Good climber. Good teacher.
I'm working on a project where there is (for short me) a really high step. Sometimes I'm able to get my foot up and then I really have to remember that I quickly need to shift my weight over to that foot so I can get up and move on. Holds for hands are really bad so I really need the body weight to work for me.
Ty!
What do you think about blindfolded practice (on top rope) ? I founded it to be usefull for me in a several ways.
1/ Finding new positions and holds on rock (which I would otherwise have disregared)
2/ Building up muscle memory and sequence memorisation
3/ Building endurance
4/ Improving mental game and trust in your belayer
brilliant !
More!
Glad to see you picking up on this after Johnny has been trying to push this since the80s
Indeed! Was just speaking to him about it today 😊
What's he up to these days?
@@alexf2008 still climbing, that's for sure! Still as amazing at movement as ever as well...
Thank you both
That intro tho. Fire
Great instructional. I am finding it hard to progress in the gym. Understanding positioning is what I need to learn. How can I learn this if the wall over hangs? Thank you
Really useful tips in there. I have never heard anyone else pronounce 'eliminate' the way Tom does
This is a good point. It could be a Sheffield thing. They do the same with the word "traverse" where the emphasis is changed. How strange!
I always found this intro tune super dope!
was scrolling through some Artlist songs and I found it there! Was a little moment of satisfaction in the morning right there :D
Song: Theevs - Kingdom Come
cool instruction here!
Love your channel. Hi from Russia
great!
Great videos as always lattice! Could you please do one on campussing. I.e tips on progressing to 1-4-7,benefits of using different rung sizes etc.
Will add it to the VERY long list!! :-D So many video topics to do!
@@LatticeTraining I'm sure you do! Keep it comin 🙂
Thanks for this! Very good. Do the techniques that you learn through these exercises translate to overhanging climbs?
amazing
make a video on campus board training! love to see it
There's a route on a slab that has a couple of no hands moves and I'm doing everything that you said is bad. LOL!
Going to try it again tonight!
Thanks
Great stuff!
@@LatticeTraining 💥
Nailed it!
Thanks for the tips! Worked a treat!
I'd say it's beneficial to avoid practicing the end point equilibrium when you get stuck unless you have spent a long time and am really stuck trying from the beginning because you miss out on building some more: strength, balance, endurance, confidence with the unknown and reactive problem solving skills whilst climbing
and now back into the cellar :)
have you guys thought about teaching a climbing class on skillshare ? theres actually a need for it . i checked on there and there’s only one rock climbing class on there . i’m actually going to suggest to emil abrahamsson and eric karlsson to teach a climbing class on skillshare as well .
18:20 looks like you trained with the Shaolin 🤪
Hey! What’s the angle on that wall?
Haven't been climbing since February cause of the lockdown here in Ireland and me living 2 hours away from any gym. I think I might as well make a small wall in my shed😅 Any tips anyone?
There's a wealth of info online regarding home climbing walls. Don't cheap out on the plywood or the supporting structure. Remember you're building it for yourself so make it as steep as you want. If you want a slab section and are height restricted you'll pretty much just be traversing. Personally I would recommend arranging the t-nuts in a grid pattern.
If you design it well, you can build in affordable steps.
The best way to train, is you have a experienced trainer, where you have ones in the month a training or all two months and a personal training plan, tailored to you.
For the algorithm
No hands tips for overhangs???
the way you landed on your knees hurt me to watch, that how you tear the cartilage in your knees
@kneesovertoesguy
Which UP shoes are those? Can’t seem to find them anywhere
They're the new Leopard (called the Leopard II)
is that crash mattress HARD AS NAIL ? haha
Yeah the matts are pretty new 😅
🐱👤 Very interesting!
.
that's why people hate Slabs. Climbers like to to bring out their butt out
It is so stupid, if in your first move you simply put heel far from wall, it would work, same where you putting foot fingers, far from wall, but to have enough surface to make next move.
**video starts** Tom: the secret to improve your technique is to climb more
**Video ends**
“Welcome back to another video.” ???? 💁
Slabs are booooooring
Too much talking
