Will Bosi's Journey to the Top - Training for the Olympics to the Hardest Boulder in the World

Спорт

We sit down with Will Bosi and his coach Tom Randall and ask the question, what makes Will one of the best? Will Bosi's recent rock climbing achievements speak for themselves, especially the first repeat of Burden of Dreams V17. But behind all the headlines it has been a long journey and many years of training. We explore Will's formative years as a young rock climber, international competitions to the Olympic Games and his present day focus on the hardest rock climbs in the world. Will also gives us some top tips for training for climbing, its time to hit the hangboard 😉

    It is really amazing to see that arguably the strongest climber in the world right now, is a brainchild of this Lattice method that we have seen develop over the years. Talent, luck, and hard work are essential, but seeing the scientific approach to training bear fruit like this is a beautiful thing to watch.

    I mean, if we are scientific, one athlete (or two) is not really representative. Could say without Lattice they would be even stronger climbers, who knows? Some of the top athletes have coaches less known, or with very different approaches, and it still works out. (Nico Januel for the french team / Mejdi and Oriane, Roman Krajnik for Janja for a few examples). That said, I am definitely looking forward the future of Lattice.

    @@jean-yvesyang5827 We will never see statistical significance at the highest levels, because the pool is simply too small. I also think comp climbing is an entirely different discussion, because there are a lot more variables that go into it. At the end of the day, we will never know, but it is at the very least remarkable that one of the absolute top climbers in the world has come from this lattice experiment.

    Just wondering for max hangs, how do you need to progress when you are at that level, ie if he is hanging 7.5kg 1 arm then is he looking for that to increase over time, if so how long? Or is it about maintaining or simply just doing some reps? Would be good to see some data of what measures WB has improved over what timeframes and how this coincided with sending certain projects. I ask this because my max hang measures (10 s half crimp on Lattice 20mm) have dropped off (slightly frustratingly) but I am probably climbing slightly better than 6 months ago.

    depends how specific you want it to be. you wanna just get stronger, do more exercise. anything that isnt cardio. You want a dad bod. Pick up heavy object and carry them around. You want stronger upper body and core, lots of weighted pullups, assisted one arm pullups, even pullups with your feet/body parallel to the ground.

    I agree with what declansdynos said, and whatever lifts you choose, try to stick with them for at least a few weeks before switching or trying new ones, so you can really assess if they are working or not. Also Lattice has a few vids about making your own training program.

    I would go squat, deadlift, inverted rows, and overhead press. I assume most climbers are doing some sort of pullup (vertical pull) and pushup (horizontal push) training so the inverted rows (horizontal pull) and overhead press (vertical push) give the most bang for the buck and help to keep you balanced. Keep the intensity high (80-95% of max), reps and sets low (3-5), 1-2x/week (don't overdo training like this, less is more when it comes to this).
