  • #115: Training Strategy for the Next Grade -- A collab with Ryan Devlin of the Struggle Podcast
    May 6 2025

    What does it take to break through to the next climbing grade?

    With each new milestone, the challenge grows harder—but potentially more rewarding.

    In this special collaboration with The Struggle Podcast, I coach Ryan Devlin as he works to push past his current limit of 5.13a and lay the foundation for his next breakthrough in sport climbing.

    No matter your level, the tips and strategies we share in this episode can help guide your own climbing progression. A key focus of our conversation is the concept of building a solid "grade pyramid"—a proven approach for long-term advancement.

    This episode follows up on episodes #86, #91, #94, and #102, where I’ve been coaching Ryan on his journey toward his first-ever 5.13. You’ll get an inside look at where he stands as of April 2025, and the specific training and climbing recommendations I’ve made for his upcoming summer season, all with an eye toward peaking in the prime conditions of Fall.

    Tune in to learn actionable strategies, exercises, and mindset shifts to support your next goal—whether that’s your first 5.10 or your hardest send yet.

    This episode is a collaboration of Ryan's "The Struggle" podcast and my Training For Climbing podcast. I hope you enjoy it! Listen to and subscribe to The Struggle Podcast here >>

  • #113: A Powerful (and Overlooked) Route Climbing Strategy for Leveling Up!
    Mar 5 2025
    In this episode, I reveal a powerful — and often overlooked — strategy for developing the mental, technical, and tactical skills needed to level up your climbing. If you're an intermediate climber passionate about improving — or an advanced climber who's hit a plateau — then this is a must-listen episode. Even veteran climbers and professionals can use this strategy to refine their skills and “sharpen the saw” each season. America’s top sport climber, Jonathan Siegrist, has shared with me that he enjoys and benefits from this approach to route climbing. So, what is this mysterious climbing strategy? Listen in now to find out! RUNDOWN 0:16 - Welcome statement... 0:38 - Eric sets the stage for revealing a powerful route climbing strategy that really can level up your mental and technical climbing skills. This approach to route climbing is NOT "projecting" or "onsight" climbing...

Think out of the box and experiment with a range of beta solutions. Take special note of the "feel beta" of you sequence you settle on. 22:10 - 4. Use tickmarks (judiciously) as visual cues for a critical foot or hand hold. 23:00 - 5. Find the obvious rests...and search for inobvious, but possibly vital nuanced rest positions for the send go. 24:05 - 6. Be sure you know the easier sections of climbing -- they might not feel so easy on point! 25:15 - 7.
