  • Episode 34: The real reason behind my reaction to not sending my first v5

    In this episode of Face The Climb podcast, Jen shares the story of how she thought she sent her first v5, but really it was only a v3/4. And how her reaction to this went deeper than just she didn't reach her goal to send v5 by the end of 2017. That the tears and walking alone back to the car, went deeper. She shares that deeper reasoning and talks about why for climbing progression it's important to dive beyond just your surface level reactions and to the deeper meaning of them.

  • Episode 33: Life Benefits I've Experienced From My Training

    In this episode of Face The Climb podcast, Jen talks about different ways her life has been enhanced due to her own climbing training. She also talks about how no, she hasn't sent a harder grade since her training, however the other benefits she has experienced has trumped this. She is close to sending harder though, just needs a little more. 

    She talks about these benefits

    • Lasting full climbing days
    • Driving home without the need for caffeine after climbing
    • Only here and there needing that afternoon caffeine pick me up
    • Having energy to do things after a day of guiding
    • The grades she has been climbing feel easier


    Enjoy! And reminder, climbing training doesn't just need to be climb a harder grade. It sure can be, but doesn't need to be the only reason to train. There are so many more benefits and goals out there!
    Send the Bangers,
    Coach Jen
