Hey folks, I hope you enjoy this session with Shauna. If, like me, you could use a little direction during your time at the wall, this might come in handy. Let me know what you thought of the video 🎉
I love that Shauna doesn’t just climb her own project-level climbs but instead coaches you on yours. It’s so much rarer to see this format with pros but it’s a lot more helpful for intermediate climbers
Shauna is such an excellent guest. I'm always impressed by how well she can explain movements and concepts. Hearing her co-casting the IFSC cups is always such a joy. But on the other hand, Hannah, you just made a big step lately. As someone watching from the sidelines, I really can see a big positive mental change that made you stronger. Congratulations!
Thanks so much, that’s really nice to hear. I’ve been enjoying working on my mindset lately and trying to be more confident and decisive in my climbing so I’m glad it shows. Glad to hear you liked the video too. Shauna is great at breaking down concepts 🤩🥰
@@mattparkin7224probably! And it probably depends on the style of the climb too. There’s definitely V0’s that wouldn’t present themselves as the best. You can also just make up your own problems 😊
You unlocked another level with the dynamic warm-up for sure. Also, Shauna providing the step by step instructions on your project was hilarious but worked so well I wish it was available every session. Thanks Shauna!
Bruh I tried this whole routine during my session today and the warm ups made such a difference! Even while breaking in new shoes, I was able to send my projects no problem! Thank you both!!
Fantastic video! The breakdown of the warm up is so clear and easy to follow. I’m using it at tomorrow’s session (and beyond). It’s also amazing to see you Hannah getting so confident with dynamic moves!
That double handed climbing drill looks like a very valuable thing for me to try. Never really thought about trying it, since I climb mostly static. Great video with plenty of tips! Thx! What a joy to watch your progress on the white route and also Shauna's celebration of it. 💪🎉
Loved Shauna as a climber, love her as a commentator (especially compared to our French ones), discovering her as a coach/content creator and loving it still ! An all around great
I've gained a new appreciation for warmup! To treat it like you are calibrating your body for each session and define the level and intensity of yoir session
I already love this after just watching the warm-up. I'm currently nursing a hand injury and getting a bit frustrated with only climbing super easy stuff if anything. But thinking about the "hiding the veg" mentality where you can sneak in small training opportunities into even the easiest climbs is making me super excited about my next session. Thank you ❤
Shauna is the queen of climbing! 🤩 I love how deeply she goes into the details from warm up to techniques.. She had so many helpful tips I cannot wait to try out on the wall. 😊 Thank you Hannah again for creating quality climbing content with your videos. ❤
Another great video. I think a lot of people skip warming up. Especially if like myself they can only fit in one gym session a week and only for 2/3 hours.Maybe a half hour warm.up would improve the rest of time climbing. Congrats on the project 👊
Absolutely! I’ve been guilty of overlooking warming up, but the more time I give to taking it seriously the more I see the benefits beyond just getting warm for climbing. ☺️
Hey, I've been in your situation quite a bit now, and I have to say that since I actually committed to a 20-30 minutes of intentional warm up I have seen massive improvements in my climbing sessions. It's also so obvious when I bring over a friend that has been climbing for just a few months and hasn't really been warming up before sessions... When we warm up together and then go climbing they do so so much better that they actually realize themselves the improvement (I'm talking about like a whole grade higher!!) Cheers 💪✨
Watching Hannah progress to the send on her project was amazing!! Felt like I was there rooting you on! Question, is it weird that the difficulty goes by hold color? That means you never get to even try a certain hold on an easier climb until you get to that grade right?
Thank you! It was really cool to break it down with Shauna’s help and send. I do quite like the familiarity of the colour circuits - they’re mirrored across all TCH gyms. I also like that there’s quite varied hold types throughout the circuit, but I do also really enjoy wildcard grading for the reason you mention - getting to try all the holds is super helpful for building an understanding of different grip requirements! Like anything, variety is the spice, I like both ways of grading routes so long as the circuits themselves are full of different styles and holds ☺️
In my country (France), every gym (rope and bouldering) have a color range grade system with holds matching this range. So yes, you won't see many 10mm, 12, 15mm crimps on grades below 7a+/7b mostly. This is an example but it's very frustrating when you are trying harder grades with new holds you never put your hands on and you have to either learn how to hold them and it's very difficult cause new and weird etc and also, you are fighting with the higher grades... that's exactly something I want to fight (but I'm a nobody) when I can talk to a route setter or a owner of a gym because it's really bad we can't try some boulders in just easier version to train and get to this grade with ease. Also, it leads to bigger chances of injury when you can't train on holds in easier grades (I see you, mono and two finger pockets that gave me tendinitis for almost 6 months) and it's really a shame, I hate this system.
A great video and coaching session. I have so many things to try the next time I’m in a bouldering gym. You are such a positive and psyched person Shauna.
This is getting me excited to get back to the gym after a few weeks of being under the weather. Thanks for a great video as always! Loved Shauna's observations...very helpful since I climb at a similar grade limit.
This video has given me greater insight in how to structure my climbing sessions to be more effective. Thank you! Also, I enjoyed watching your progress Hannah!
Love love love this video - thanks so much!! Shauna’s tips are game changers, cannot wait to go try them out! Hoping I can get down to the Edinburgh gym while those white climbs are there. Could be my first V5!! 🤞 More Shauna in the future please 😁
It made me feel really good to already have this warm up routine almost from the start of my climbing journey. I also do some pull ups with an ellastic band just to help the biceps and shoulders more. Great video!! 🧡
So good to see you both climbing at my new local gym! Great to see you both climbing stuff I’ve climbed or am working on at the moment. Great advice as usual, Shauna is my favourite! ❤️
Oh Hannah I remember watching a video of yours for the first time (it was the previous video with Bee, a few months ago), and you talking about feeling more comfortable climbing statically. You've come so far, you crushed those dynamic moves ❤❤ it's heartwarming to see how your climbing is developing, and very inspiring too!
@@hannahmorrisbouldering It was great training! I love how you can scale the difficulty by deciding which boulder problem to use and which holds to aim for. Also got me conscious about landing the hands and feet in good spots when moving dynamically. This leads to thinking about my body positioning and balancing after landing the moves so it is just overall a great exercise to try. I have tried using just one hand or foot to train dynamic moves but these exercises are a bit harder to scale difficulty and get steady progression because there are more variables. The two hand moves are a great middle step before moving on to trickier dynamic drills imo. I am a very static climber and I think this will be a staple in my training sessions!
Shauna is one of my favorite climbing personalities. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone more knowledgeable on climbing technique and mentality than her. It's like she couldn't be unhelpful if she tried.
You should maybe start a vid playlist where you visit a different indoor gym each time (in your region?/uk?). Or a different outdoor wall/boulder activity area.
❤ Shauna breaks movement down so well, making the drills easy to follow. Love it! But more importantly Hannah, where are your leggings from please? They look really good quality!
I just started bouldering last week. Yall are doing this for warmups????? I'm trying to plan my workout and I thought the warmup was the workout lmao 5-10 boulders before the real course omg im going for a beer after this 30min workout
I always aim just above and land on it, but then there was a dynamic move to a pocket and I just kept hitting the dual tex bit at the top of the pocket cause I was aiming above it a bit too much 😂Got it after a few tries though! I really need to warm up with more so a system tbh. Usually the first bit of climbing is just me wandering about the gym and doing what looks fun while slowly moving up the grades. I downclimb as much as I can, but I should be adding in some more drills
Review at 13:00 l, at this point they've apparently only been there 30 minutes as Shauna lists everything they've done, which is quite a bit for 30 minutes.
The full run through of the mobility session I do before a session is up on my channel but it will vary depending upon your time available, how regularly you stretch and how you feel on the day! The important thing is to connect yourself with your body and prepare for your session on the wall. 💪🔥
That’s could be a whole other video, but there’s definitely ways to maximise your session structure to make sure your making the best use of your time, when you’re climbing and between sessions. 😅
If you are able to get a beastmaker up in your house to maintain and build finger strength as well as incorporate elements of the mobility warm up at home on a regular basis then when you do get down to the wall you will notice some notable gains 💪. Good luck!
@@ShaunaCoxseyClimber I actually do have a hangboad, and do some training with it. But my major setback is with the techniques and experience since I cant go to the climbing gym often (once in a week or two weeks)

The double handed drill is a GAME CHANGER. It's really helpful for becoming a more dynamic climber. 🙌
Right?! So effective in building confidence ☺️
is it best to start these on V0 to get a feel for the movement and then work up?
@@mattparkin7224probably! And it probably depends on the style of the climb too. There’s definitely V0’s that wouldn’t present themselves as the best. You can also just make up your own problems 😊
I don't think i've ever been that excited about going back to training after seeing a video. So much quality advices in here, thanks a lot !!!
Glad you enjoyed it! :D
Suggestion Box: Hanna, Coach B, Shauna collaboration. I'm always a fan of Shauna's commentary. "Hiding the veg", brilliant!
That would be a great video! 😅
That would be awesome.
shauna coxsey is the very first pro climber i ever followed and it makes me so happy to see her climbing and coaching and talking about her process
the way shauna thinks and describes beta is SO helpful, I loved all her commentating in the last ifsc season!!
I agree! :D
You unlocked another level with the dynamic warm-up for sure. Also, Shauna providing the step by step instructions on your project was hilarious but worked so well I wish it was available every session. Thanks Shauna!
Shauna is always such a generous guest. I will be trying those warm ups tomorrow, great video!
Hope you find them helpful! I’ve been adding them into my warm up lots since filming!

This is killer advice, wasn't too sure how to structure my training sessions but this should help a ton.
Glad to hear it 😅🙏
Nice to see Shauna back on the channel! Looking forward to watching this 😊thank you Hannah and Nathan :)
Glad you enjoyed it Ella. Thanks for watching 🫶
Looks like a fantastic session!
It was really fun 🥳
The Climbing Hangar Edinburgh looks so cool!! Will definitely have to try it out 🤩
It’s a really great new centre. Lots of really cool problems for everyone 🤗🥰
Such an exciting guest! Already psyched for this vid :)

This is really good!
Glad you enjoyed it ☺️
Love this video. Shauna is an amazing guest and explains the moves so well.
Glad you enjoyed it. Shauna’s understanding of movement and ability to explain it clearly is ace 🙏

These routines look great, will try. Also the split screen was super good
Glad you like them!

Loved this, really useful tips! Going to hand to try out the two-hand climbing drill next session...
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it and hope you enjoy the drills 💪
So good to see you both climbing at my new local gym! Great to see you both climbing stuff I’ve climbed or am working on at the moment.
Great advice as usual, Shauna is my favourite! ❤️
Lucky you to have TCH as your new local! It’s a great new gym. Hope you’ve been enjoying it ☺️

Just got into climbing a few months back and have been looking for a good warmup routine so will definitely be giving this a go! Awesome video
Hope you enjoy it! Full version on Shauna’s channel ☺️
This session was really cool!
Will need to try some of this double hand climbing in my next indoor session!
Great video as always !!
Thank you! Glad you liked it 🤗
Please do one for outdoor bouldering warm up!
I'm going to the gym to try the double hands today!
In like 2 hours lol
That is exactly what I needed
Great to hear, hope it helps set your session up nicely to try hard! 🚀

Among all pro climbers worldwide, Shauna is the one who does every move most gracefully.

Shauna is one of my favorite climbing personalities. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone more knowledgeable on climbing technique and mentality than her. It's like she couldn't be unhelpful if she tried.
Hahahaha you absolute casual. Go talk to people in gyms and she will drop down your list very quickly.
Great sesh. Would love to see an extended cut of the mobility routine!!
Hey, glad you enjoyed it! A full run through is up on my channel 😊
Glad you liked the video, hope the mobility comes in handy! 🫶
Thanks so much to the both of you!!!
Fun looking boulders. Great work
Glad you enjoyed it
You should maybe start a vid playlist where you visit a different indoor gym each time (in your region?/uk?). Or a different outdoor wall/boulder activity area.
"How are you feeling?" "Yes"
My two favorites together 💛
🫶🫶
so much good advices. Thank you very much Hannah and Shauna :)
Glad you enjoyed it and hope the tips continue to come in handy :)
Hi Hannah - the last 2 videos have been superb! Some advice on a minimum protocol for a cool-down would be great at some point 😊
Glad you’ve enjoyed them. Hopefully we can cover cool down in a video soon ☺️
oooh shauna is my fav climber

I feel like i would be buggered by the end of the warm up
I was
coming here for that 16:27 moments :)
Magnus doesn't warm up so neither do I.
Is it Josh in the background at 16:04 ? 😂 and again 20:48
Yes probably! We were all there for a couple of filming days ☺️
He'll have been desperate to try out some new slab.
What's happening int eh background at 16:08
Most impressive part of this session is climbing 20 boulders on those new holds without bleeding 🤣
Very very true! Skin was suffering towards the end of the few days we were there 😅
Wow, 10-15 of the lowest boulder ranges when warming up? I don't do nearly as much as that!
❤
What if you cant go to the gym often?
That’s could be a whole other video, but there’s definitely ways to maximise your session structure to make sure your making the best use of your time, when you’re climbing and between sessions. 😅
