You’re training — but not progressing
You’re doing the work:
- You train regularly
- You try different methods
- You put in the effort
But when it actually matters:
- You get pumped too quickly
- You can’t recover between attempts
- You plateau — despite doing more
The problem is not effort. It’s misapplied training.
Stop guessing
This system is built on real performance data — so you know what actually drives progress.
Poor endurance looks like this:
Force drops quickly. Recovery never fully resets — this is why you get pumped again, even after resting.
This approach is built around the metrics that actually drive performance:
- Peak Load (PL)
- Critical Force (CF)
- W′ (anaerobic capacity)
Instead of random sessions, you train with structure:
- build aerobic base
- improve repeatability
- support high-intensity performance
This is how training actually translates into performance.
Proven in real climbing
- Tested across 100+ climbers — from intermediate to national level
- Built from direct measurement of fatigue and recovery
- Improves recovery, consistency, and long-term performance

Turn your data into better climbing
Knowing your numbers is the first step. What matters is applying them in a way that actually improves your climbing.
The Aerobic Base Expansion Program shows you exactly how to turn these metrics into real, repeatable progress.
