SLOTH CLIMBING

Watch the video below. This is the opposite of POWER CLIMBING. The goal of this drill is to improve lock-off strength (the ability to reach the next hold in a controlled manner). Choose climbs a few grades below your redpoint limit. Climb each one 1–2 times with 3–5 minute rests in between. This is a more climbing-specific exercise than uneven pull-ups, Frenchies, and negatives, and is great for technical vertical climbing and pocket climbing, where precision is key.
