Climbing Training Plan
The Climbing Training Plan requires one upfront payment.
You must complete your initial assessment within 6 months after purchase. The assessment will be emailed to you after purchase.
  • You must be over 18 years of age
  • You must have climbed V4/6B boulder or 6b+/5.10+ sport in the last 12 months
  • You must be able to hang your bodyweight on a 20mm rung for 10 seconds or more
  • You must accept that the testing and completion of the training plan does carry a risk of injury
  • You must not be injured (see FAQs for details)
  • Please get in touch if you are pregnant or less than 12 months postpartum

Required (assessment only)

To complete your assessment, you will need the following equipment:
  • 20mm flat edge (e.g. Lattice Training Rung or Beastmaker 1000)
  • Pull-up bar
  • Weighing scales
  • A means for adding weight: a weight belt or climbing harness, sling or Lifting Pin, a carabiner, and weights*.
  • A pulley system for removing weight: a climbing harness, a pulley device (e.g. Petzl Partner), a sling or Lifting Pin, 3 carabiners, 2m length of rope, and weights*.
  • A Flex Mat or measuring tape (and potentially an extra set of hands to use it)

Recommended

For your training, we recommend the following equipment**:
  • Regular access to climbing facilities***
  • 20mm flat edge (e.g. Lattice Training Rung or Beastmaker 1000)
  • Pull-up bar
  • A means for adding weight: a weight belt or climbing harness, sling or Lifting Pin, a carabiner, and weights*.
  • Some free weights

If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch.

  • *Typically, 10-60kg in 2.5kg increments, but this may be more or less.
  • **While the equipment listed is recommended, if you don’t have access to everything, this shouldn’t be a problem. All our plans are 100% customised to you, including the facilities and equipment you have access to.
  • ***This may be a climbing gym, home training board, or outdoor climbing.

FAQs

No problem! Many of our clients come to us for their first coaching experience.

All our plans are delivered via our app, including detailed exercise descriptions and videos showing you how to complete the training, ensuring anyone with any level of experience can train effectively.

Yes! We work with clients all over the globe.

All of our coaching services are offered remotely so you can access world-class training, wherever you are based.

Most of the climbers we work with have full time jobs, often with families and other responsibilities.

Our training plans with ongoing coach support (Climbing Training Plan PLUS and Flexibility Training Plan) are ideal for a busy lifestyle: if something last-minute comes up, your coach can edit your plan to suit.

We have experience working with athletes across a huge range of abilities; from those attempting their first V5 all the way up to professional rock climbers.

The entry requirements for all of our training plans are the same, you must have climbed V4/6B boulder or 6b+/5.10+ sport in the last 12 months.

You must also be able to hang your bodyweight on a 20mm rung for 10 seconds or more.

Absolutely not! Most of our clients are aged 35-50 (and we have worked with climbers well into their golden years!).

All of our climbers in this age range – whether they started late in life or not – are perfectly capable of getting stronger and fitter, and we see this on a weekly basis.

Yes, of course!

We’ll work with you to find the healthy balance between structured and unstructured climbing that’s necessary to keep your training sustainable in the long-term; whether that’s structured climbing indoors in the week and unstructured climbing outdoors at the weekends, or squeezing training into your lunch break to complement your social climbing in the evening.

All our training plans are focused on developing the physical attributes needed for climbing. Your coach will look at the results of your testing and write a custom physical training plan to develop these.

If you’re hoping to focus on developing technique, we would recommend you work with a local in-person coach.

Consideration 1: The Grade You Climb

For all our plans, in the last 12 months, you must have bouldered V4/6B or sport climbed 6b+/5.10+.

If you climb at an intermediate level, all of our plans are suitable! Keep reading to find out what else you should consider when choosing your plan.

For anyone climbing at an advanced or elite level, we would recommend our Climbing Training Plan PLUS which includes ongoing coach support as your training is likely to be more nuanced and may need adjusting within a training block.

Consideration 2: Your Focus

If flexibility is your priority, then you should choose a Flexibility Training Plan. Whilst all of our coaches are able to prescribe flexibility as part of a plan focused on overall holistic performance, climbers hoping to improve their flexibility primarily would benefit from the expertise of our dedicated flexibility coaches.

Consideration 3: Level of Coach Support

If you are someone who has lots of questions for a coach, requires plan re-writes and edits due to a busy life or last-minute changes or inconsistent access to facilities, or if you simply want ongoing contact with your coach, our Climbing Training Plan PLUS is perfect for you.

If you’re happy with a self-led approach without ongoing coach support and monitoring, our Climbing Training Plan is right for you.

Consideration 4: Training History & Experience

If you’re someone who has never trained before or is relatively new to structured training, it’s likely that our Climbing Training Plan will meet your needs.

If you have a long history of structured training, it’s likely that our Climbing Training Plan PLUS will be more appropriate as you’ll be able to work with your coach in an ongoing way to nuance your training plan. This plan is perfect for anyone trying to break plateau.

Unfortunately not – for all our plans, you must have bouldered V4/6B or sport climbed 6b+/5.10d+ in the last 12 months, and must be able to hang bodyweight on a 20mm edge for 10 seconds.

As all our plans are delivered remotely, we have physical requirements in place to reduce the risk of injury to clients. We don’t want to cause injury by putting your body under stress it isn’t ready for.

Additionally, these requirements ensure that you’re ready to get the most out of your time spent training!

You can head to our YouTube channel, blog or podcast for free resources to help you reach those benchmarks.

Our ‘Fingerboarding for Beginners’ video and ‘Training Fundamentals’ series are a great place to start.

Alternatively, our Education Courses are great resources for learning about and writing your own training plan. ‘A Climber’s Guide to Training’ is our flagship course that should teach you everything you need to know to write your own training plan.

You will need the required equipment to complete the assessment at the start of your plan. However, after this, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have access to the recommended equipment. Our training plans are fully personalised—not just to your goals, strengths, and weaknesses, but also to the facilities and equipment available to you. Simply let your coach know what you have access to in your pre-plan form, and they’ll tailor your plan accordingly.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re injured! We wish you a speedy recovery!

Whilst we don’t typically work with injured climbers, lower body injuries are the exception since maintaining your upper body strength whilst you recover is a good idea. Your coach will write you a plan focusing on upper body conditioning and finger strength; just let them know about your injury in the pre-plan form you receive at the start of your plan.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer this service to clients who are pregnant or less than 12 months postpartum.

Pregnancy and the postpartum period require a more tailored approach, with closer monitoring to ensure safety and avoid injury or complications. Since this plan does not include ongoing coach support, we recommend our Climbing Training Plan PLUS as we will match you with our pregnancy and postpartum specialist who will offer ongoing support and monitoring. This option ensures you receive the support needed to train safely and effectively during this time.

open quotation Not only have I become stronger and more flexible, but I enjoy climbing a lot more now. The flexibility of the plan makes the program easily adjustable to everyday time constraints and means that it is very easy to follow. closed quotation

open quotation Like many others, I am obsessed with climbing, but I have a desk job; I don't have time to read the literature or collect climbing performance metrics. The Lattice coaches really know their stuff, and are super strong climbers themselves. All 3 times I've had a plan, I've seen an improvement in my grade and, more importantly, enjoyment in climbing as I feel light as a bird and injury-free. Keep up the great work Lattice! closed quotation

open quotation The results are amazing. I feel strong and confident in my climbing. I will get another plan for sure! closed quotation

Christoph Auer

open quotation A Lattice training plan removes a lot of mental stress trying to continuously adapt your training. You know exactly what to do that week. No more, no less. In the past I've always felt like “I should be doing more" or "I should be doing something else", but with this plan, I could put that part of my mind to rest. closed quotation

Mats Olsen

open quotation My training plan was easy to follow, and as a result, I am now climbing consistently harder than before. Totally worth it! closed quotation

    I’ve been meaning to write a review for a while but have struggled to put into words just how great my experience with Lattice has been (without it getting too cheesy). Basically it’s like…an addiction, but in the best possible sense of the word. You start off dabbling a little, maybe watch a few youtube videos or listen to some of their podcasts, next you might join the Lattice FB community, then you get a 4 week plan, you see how quickly you progress physically and end up getting a longer plan, which lead to another one and then another one until it becomes a constant, positive part of your life. Basically the more involved you get the better it becomes and the more you want. But it’s not just about the training and the physical benefits, there’s sooo much more to it!

    Yes, the plan is brilliant, easy to follow and varied enough to be interesting (mine has board climbing, fingerboard sessions as well as lots of S&C and mobility). The fact that it’s planned especially for your needs/goals certainly adds a motivational aspect and the Crimpd app is very user friendly. After just 4 weeks I definitely saw improvement in all areas but for me, the mental aspect has made even more of a difference. The coaches are so helpful and I really think you can tell how committed they are to making Lattice the very best it can be. They really go above and beyond with what they do and there’s a constant feed of new, useful information through various channels, covering all areas from nutrition, to bouldering, to projecting, training and more(!) and always in a really approachable, welcoming way. It really doesn’t matter if you’re completely new to climbing or if you’ve been climbing for years, it’s a happy mix to suit everyone. The positivity throughout the community is absolutely infectious and it’s really the best possible platform I can imagine for all your climbing needs. Honestly, I feel like I haven’t just found a fun, effective training plan; I feel like I’ve found my tribe.

  2. Kinga Brumbauer

    I am very happy with my decision to start the “Home training” plan with the Lattice Team.
    I really like climbing, but I never had fun doing physical training and it always ended with pain and no fun.
    In a few weeks I see a lot of progress, I am enjoying even more climbing on the rocks and the plan is easy to follow. It is very flexible and easy to understand (my English is not the best :)) My questions are answered very veeery quickly.
    I just started my second plan, I had no hesitation to follow it.
    Thank you very much Lattice Team for the motivation!

    After training on my own for years I had achieved my goal finger strength score however I was struggling with progression in the areas of Anaerobic Capacity and core strength and endurance. I asked Lattice to focus my plan on these two areas and it worked perfectly. Now 1 year later I retested and doubled my numbers in both areas making my previous weaknesses into notable strengths. What is more is I am climbing better and stronger than ever. I’m very impressed by Lattice and will continue to work with them!

  4. Iggi Moore

    I have been climbing for 30+ years and train like a beast; but the last 10 has seen me doing mostly 7b routes and I seemed to have reached a plateau. So I opted like so many to train hard during Lockdown; I bought the FB Plan. I wasn’t used to such a structured plan and thought there were way too many rest days! However, these guys know their stuff and I went from onsighting 7a/b to my first onsight of a 7c in many a year. Buy it, follow it to the T, and reap the rewards. It’s changed the way I train and the grade I climb. 🙂

  5. Jane L

    Highly recommend doing this training plan if you’re unable to go to the gym. When this plan is paired with the Crimpd app it is fantastic. The mini-assessment is very easy to do and make sure to be accurate with how much time you can train because Lattice will absolutely tailor it to that. This plan gave me focus while staying at home. Comparing it to previously just going to the gym aimlessly, the plan gave me a structure and to track actual progress.

    I was worried that not climbing would affect my performance but doing a plan actually improved my climbing outdoors. I was able to climb a 6c after having struggled with the first move a year ago. On to the next Lattice Plan!

    Pros:
    Keeps you motivated
    Tailored to your strengths/weaknesses
    Crimpd App
    Progress Tracking

    Cons:
    None
