  • Episode 80: But won't lifting make me bulky and gain weight? No. No it won't

    Many climbers think that lifting will end up making them bulky and gain weight. When in reality that is not the case at all and climbers would extremely benefit from lifting. This episode breaks down that thought of lifting making one bulky and gain weight into what is going on in terms of water retention at the beginning and then the long term of how lifting is energy expenditure just like climbing.
