Any tips?

1. Contract ""REDS"". Nothing climbs as well as hollow cheeks and sparrow legs.
2. Pick the softest touches you can find and hope to get the life-defining big number before remus downgrades it.
(or 2.a. Become a born again Sharma-like hippy and give up grades entirely, fly free from the shackles of mere numbers, and hope everyone assumes your latest testpieces are so difficult they transcend earthly grades too).
3. Broadcast every single monotonous thing you do all the fucking time on insta / tik-tok / youtube, with massive clickbait titles and a high proportion of indoor videos.
4. Ummm I think that covers it??

The real question is, how do u get better @ bouldering without training or any sustained form of self-discipline?
I'm holding out for this one.

Any tips?
Building a board at home has probably been the best thing for my bouldering. Especially with family and job commitments. Can still squeeze in little sessions. Plus it’s fun making up projects and trying to see them off.
-
Climb with people who are stronger than you. Unfortunately, I've long since out grown my usual climbing partners, which is almost a shame ;)
-
Try hard. Make every session count. You don't need to be so strong if you can actually use all the power you have.
-
Try loosening your throat and allowing your client to finish either deep down your gullet or spraying it all over your cheap mirrored aviators, make sure you smile and enjoy the process until you have pocketed the cash and are safely back......Oh sorry i misread that completely.

Gradually.

Obtain an eating disorder

This. Someone once said to me learn something from every problem you do. If you know you just clawed your way to the top of a problem, don't just walk away, come back to it another time and see if you can climb it better.

Covered in my first #protip and later confirmed by ChoadlistPunter :smartass:
Also "enjoying it" does not get you The Big Grade Gainz :spank:

Perhaps, perhaps not. But enjoying it does get you gainz in the TBCITOHTMF league table.

At the risk of being flippant about eating disorders, not eating until satisfied several times a day sounds like waaaay too much self-discipline to me. I'd rather get a training programme.
Though I will soon be spending a few months living off rations on an ice cap, so maybe I can hope for some #gainz come the spring :weakbench:

Does Wellsy seems like someone who wants to have any fun in climbing?? :-\ :ninja: :unsure:

Why, pray tell, did you keep on getting on the Moonboard... :-\ ::)

To get better at bouldering. Awful idea. Didn't work. Thankfully go too injured to keep going with that sort of bollox.
-
Climb on rock as often as possible balancing good quality mileage and projecting.
-
Different rock types too, to keep it varied.
Note, I don't say both rock types - Gritstone AND Limestone (old joke from Blues Brothers).
-
Take up gold 5x a week. Practicing your swing will translate perfectly to grit slabs.
-
Beat your meat thrice daily whilst staring at a picture of Nalle or Ondra.
Alternative transfer your wages directly to lattice and they’ll sort you out
-
Take supplements, follow Toby’s nutrition regime, buy a teloscopic ladder, portable fan, spot lights, 3 pads.
Allez Allez, Oui Oui
