- A LEGEND OF BRITISH CLIMBING - STEVE MCCLURE
In today's TH-cam and podcast episode we have none other than Steve Mcclure who is one of the all-time greats of British climbing. We don't say this lightly either, because it takes a lot to cross the borders and generations of time.
Steve has been operating right at the cutting edge for 25 years or so - this means there's a LOT of experience AND knowledge on what works when it comes to process and performance! He's redpointed up to 9b (Rainman), multiple 9a repeats and FAs, many of the hardest trad routes in the UK up to E10/11, bigwall adventures, international competition performances... it's a lot!
Tom sits down with Steve in this episode to take on a broad range of topics around his career in climbing - all the way from mindset, to finger strength, to training during lockdown, to methods for "the older climber" to differences between inside and outside climbing. Fascinating stuff! Grab yourself a cup of tea (Yorkshire hopefully) and get ready for some amazing insights into three decades of climbing at the limit.

Fantastic. Great interview. Good to hear all the stuff about age and injury. Thanks 🙏 😉😁
A lot of good wisdom to be a strong climber for decades.
So true!! It's a long time at the top
This was a great conversation! Having had what I thought was a career-ending injury (2+ years) I just want to let people know that there's often a light at the end of the tunnel for most of these. I'd actually love to have a similar type of interview with Tom where he talks about what it was like moving from lower grades to higher ones both within offwidths and otherwise.
This was a great discussion. Just wanted to say I really appreciate you both putting this together and sharing it with everyone. I'm currently recovering from one of the worst finger injuries of my climbing career and the discussion about viewing an injury as an opportunity really resonated. Also a good reminder that the injuries do eventually heal and we get back at it!
Incredible! The man, the legend ! Have been waiting to see a lengthy interview like this, thanks lattice !!

What a brilliant interview. A tresasure of experience to learn from. Thank you both!!

Love this interview! Keep watching it. It’s so rich in wisdom that climbers without the years of experience need. Thanks
Brilliant interview Tom. Lots of info for older climbers especially here.
A real treat to hear from such a legend. Thank you Steve and Tom!
Beside his climbing (legend) Steve is such an interesting and smart character.
Fantastic! Listened to the podcast first. Great conversational style packed full of info. Thank you Tom & Steve 😀
I love this guy!
amazing...great stuff. Thank you both ...amazing
Class that. Such insight from a legend. 👌👌
Love listening to the really experienced climbers, so much knowledge.
Would also be really interested to hear from more alpine climbers on their experiences and journeys
Really brilliant interview, thanks guys, so interesting to hear all the years of experience especially for older climbers. Lots of wisdom and I was smiling all the way through. Nearly better than climbing! ;-) Cheers
''I wasn't even trying, nowhere near !'' Steve has his trying to a science and an art.
amazing content, great stuff, Thanks so much!
Great interview, really enjoyed that
Excelente entrevista!
Legend!!
Excellent description of aging. Hip Flexibility has always plagued me and after spending lockdown doing yoga I'm curious to see how it changes my climbing this summer
That intro music is much better!
Good vid. Well done for getting him to talk
Thanks!
Awesome
Been doing the ste Mac power endurance workout for about 6 weeks now once a week be interesting to see if it works once we can get on real rock again
49:30 "I can fall off the top and be fine"...uh, Dave broke his ankle bad on that one, no?
I think that was mostly due to bad belaying. You could see James Pearson falling in the movie at the same place without issues
Dave was short belayed from the ledge. The belayer was attached to the belay anchor.
Sonny and Steve belayed from the ground, so the fall was much softer and more "sporty"
nice
I have a question that is sort of off topic: How often do you think climbers should train pull up and pull up related exercises per week? In your video from more than a year ago where you talk about planning your training, you only put one pull up session per week. Is this what is best?

When Steve pulls his shoes all the way on, he is getting serious (fans know what I mean ;) !
