Stephen posted a video to Instagram: the best climbing coaches are Orangutan moms! In 2011 I had the privilege to follow a mom and her child through the jungle near the village Ketambe in Sumatra’s Leuser ecosystem. Orangutan mothers take single parenting to the next level. These highly intelligent apes look after their young for eight years; longer than any other animal single parent. Female Sumatran orangutans only have a baby once every nine years (they continue to have babies into their 40s), and because they take such a long time to raise each one, mum and baby build exceptionally strong social bonds. Only humans have a similar intensive relationship with their mothers. Primatologists believe that orangutans have such long childhoods because there is so much that they need to learn before they can live alone successfully. They are about 20m up in this video, so a fall would be lethal. In every instance, the mum is aware of where her child is and supports and spots it if needed. Orangutans are the most arboreal of the great apes and spend most of their time in trees where they travel from branch to branch by climbing, clambering, and brachiating. They possess extremely flexible hip joints that allow for great mobility, and their big toes are able to grasp just like a hand. Unfortunately there are only about 6.000 wild Orangutan left in Sumatra. Threats to wild orangutan populations include poaching, the illegal pet trade and habitat destruction as a result of palm oil cultivation. So one thing we all can do for the survival of Orangutans is avoiding products with palm oil. Palm oil is an important ingredient for the food industry, used as a cooking oil or in the production of processed foods (such as many types of chocolates, biscuits, chewing gum...) and for the manufacture of cosmetic and hygiene products (soaps, lipstick, washing powder…) It is also used for the production of so-called biodiesel. Till palm oil production can’t guarantee to be sustainable and doesn’t ruin primary rain forests or violate the land rights of local people I try to avoid it whenever I can! . #orangutans #orangutanmother #climbingperformancecoaching #climbing #palmoilfree #palmoilkills #brachiation #arboreal https://ift.tt/2Vj3jXA

Stephen posted a video to Instagram: one-hand Release and Freeze Challenge While hanging from both hands, bring your body into a shape or have a partner guide you into a position. Now release one hand, while freezing your body like a stature, being as still as possible. Hold for three seconds (count ‘alligators’ or ‘thousand’ as one second) or, better, for three breath-cycles. What is it good for? In S&C this would be considered isometric strength training and it will certainly improve your static muscle and tendon strength. The benefits for your balance are even more important imo. Balance is attained when the centre of gravity is over (or under, when hanging) the base of support. All movements require some sort of static balance, from which all controlled movement originates and is managed through effective posture and muscular contractions and relaxation. Struggling with finding balance before releasing a hand or foot often leads to much more struggling later in a climbing move. This is what you practice here: identifying the right position and timing for releasing one hand and building the strength to control the position after the release! #ideastoimproveyourclimbing #borntoclimb #klettertraining #balance #tensegrity #strength #climbing #climbingperformancecoaching https://ift.tt/37ERYmW

Ideas to improve your Climbing, pt.1-3 https://vimeo.com/ondemand/ideas2improveurclimbing While there is abundant information about physical preparation for climbing, there is very little concerning the mental and technical aspects and almost nothing regarding skill acquisition in climbing. Ideas to improve your climbing is a three part video series that sheds some light! Let’s be clear - if you believe that climbing performance is only dependent on your physical fitness and can be therefore improved with only physical training - these videos are not for you! While the first video deals extensively with aspects like mobility and shoulder health, I quickly expand to climbing biomechanics and new developments in climbing technique to prepare you for the demands of modern bouldering and climbing. Even all that means nothing, if you neglect the perceptive, cognitive and psychological side of things, after all - If you don’t feel, hear or see anything, how can you activate those muscles? So, if you see potential for improving your climbing by caring about aspects like motor learning, practice design and Perception-Action coupling, please read on and consider my Ideas to improve your climbing!
