What can you do for optimal performance in climbing competitions?

It's all about having fun and doing your best on the wall to solve the most problems in the fewest attempts!
There's a lot you can do to be in the best condition for climbing competition.

BlocParty qualification is a total boulder format, which means you have limited time to climb the most problems in the fewest attempts. You keep track of your score and if you are better than enough of the other climbers, you advance to the final. It's a good idea to be prepared and have a good strategy.

Here are some tips on what you can do for optimal performance.

💪 Rest a few days up to so you don't have tired muscles on competition day.

💪 Stretch and warm up! Use the easiest problems as a warm-up.

💪 Have some snacks ready and class your blood sugar stable throughout the day! Of course, you can buy snacks, drinks and dinner at the event.

💪 Be strategic with your attempts and breaks. It's recommended to pause for 5-7 minutes between attempts on difficult problems.

💪 Every attempt counts, so it's a great idea to read the problem thoroughly and visualize all movements before you go on!

💪 Use as little energy as possible. If you end up in the final, it's a bummer to have spent all your energy in qualifying.

Happy climbing! 🤜💥🤛
