Hey Tommy, just came across your channel today, insanely captivating content. I'm in it from minute 0 to the end! Can't wait to watch you progress and I hope to follow along over time!
Love your videos man, I thought you had well over 50k subscribers until you showed the 199. Only complaint is maybe do less or quieter music to match your genuine style of content.
Dude nice thumbnail first off made me think you had like 75k+ subs. Also great video I love your style, very personal and I can hear your really passionate about this. Kudos to you. I’m 1 year into climbing wanna send my first v8 soon, and your videos are inspiring. Thanks for this vid love it!
Hey. Great vid. Excited to see more progress. I apologize if this is an unsolicited comment. Purely out of the best wishes: The shoulders are very much raised and slumped forward. Have you noticed a problem with that? You can see a huge difference in the attempts, when the shoulders are down and scapula are engaged
No worries, I appreciate the comment! I actually hadn’t paid attention to that on my attempts, I’m actually unsure. I wonder if the attempt quality was worse because of my shoulder position or if my shoulder position compromised because of a bad attempt 🤔 I’ll have to be more conscious of that in my next sessions, thank you!
Let’s gooooo! Im glad to hear it 😄 yeah I’ll probably try to make some videos about tips I’ve learned over the years, but in the beginning, honestly just climbing, trying hard, and having fun are the most important things. Try to climb with people that are better than you, you’ll be able to learn a lot and it’ll probably get you more psyched to keep climbing 😁
I also have super moist skin but I put on antihydral once every month before I sleep and just wash it off in the morning and I noticed my skin is way better. My skin lasts longer and is dry normally which really helps on contact strength.
Interesting, does it not make your skin too dry? I’ve always worried abt my skin not being able to recover and getting too thin if I used antihydral. I’ll have to look into it more
@@tommysegovia My skin lasts longer because it is super dry since when I’m hitting holds my fingers move around less and don’t get worn down. Just like how when you climb outdoors while it’s high humidity, your skin gets destroyed faster since you move around a lot more on the rock when you contact versus when it’s low humidity, you just stick to the hold and waste less skin. And worse comes to worse if you destroy your skin in a session then just throw on some Rhino Repair.
great video Tommy, keep it up! for the finger skin, do you ever use antihydrals? or do you find they do more harm than good? im struggling with thin tips at the end of every session lately, and I don't even climb multiple days in a row
Thank you! I’ve never tried antihydral specifically, but I’ve found some good results with various climbing skin stuff like rhinoskin which dries out the skin and can make it thicker. But I’ve noticed that I seem to overdo it and dry my skin out too much. Still learning how to best manage skin, I think there’s potentially value in regular lotion for dry skin, I don’t think it necessarily neeeeeds to be climbing specific products tbh. Also I have noticed stimulants (caffeine, fat burners, etc.) make your skin a lot warmer and sweatier which can make your skin wear easier, so that could also be a factor if you take pre workout before climbing for example
I have tried it, and I think it does work good if you have really sweaty skin. I’ve just had a habit of overdoing it I think, but recently I have started using some rhino skin products again after a long break, so I’ll try to keep you guys posted on how it goes 😁
Jealous of the spray wall! I struggle with constant finger injuries and was wondering how long your sessions are and if you have a coach/custom training plan?
My sessions are about 2-3 hours of actual climbing, not including off the wall warming up and auxiliary stuff. And no I don’t have a coach or anything, I might make a more in depth video on it, but my current training plan is basically 2 days on 1 day off, doing pretty much 90% of my training on the wall. Which is pretty new to me, but the change was kinda out of life circumstances but seems to be working well so far

Thank you so much! I appreciate the feedback, music usage and audio balancing has definitely been a learning process 😅

Just stumbled across your videos and it’s really encouraging me to keep climbing! Do you have any tips for starting out climbing?

@@silencerko48dang that’s a really good point, I’m definitely gonna look into some now. Thank you for the perspective 😁

Did you build this spray wall yourself? I'm thinking of building my own homewall next Spring!
Yeah me and one of my friends put the whole thing together. That’s awesome! It’s a fun investment and process making one
have you ever tried Rhino dry spray for wet skin? been wondering if that stuff works
I have tried it, and I think it does work good if you have really sweaty skin. I’ve just had a habit of overdoing it I think, but recently I have started using some rhino skin products again after a long break, so I’ll try to keep you guys posted on how it goes 😁
How tall is the board and at what angle? Also could you make a video on setting the wall with holds?
The wall is 10ft wide and 12ft long at 40 degrees overhanging. Yeah totally, like putting new holds on? Or like making problems on it?
@@tommysegovia how you put the holds on.
@@spacemanjr12oh yeah, there’s a little bit of that at the end of my last video, but I rly didn’t end up recording too much of that part 😓
