**Part 2 of '10 Things That Matter More Than You Think'** 
Climbing performance is fairly complex because there are so many moving parts to the equation and many of the skills take years, if not decades, to perfect. Fortunately, [Tom Randall](https://latticetraining.com/about/tom-randall/) is on the podcast in this episode to give you another 'solo' session on what things **really** make a difference in climbing your best. 

In this second part, he dives into a variety of factors that probably don't get enough discussion, but make a massive difference to your climbing. Get over half of these items ticked off and perfected, and you'll probably see 1-2 grades of climbing improvement at your projecting level in a single season.
