FAQs
I've never been coached before. Is that ok?
No problem! Many of our clients come to us for their first coaching experience.
Your 1:1 coach is only a message away. They’re always on hand to help, from answering your questions to teaching you how to structure your training.
I'm not based in the UK. Do you offer remote coaching?
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.
I am very busy. Do I have time for structured training?
Most of the climbers we work with have full time jobs, often with families and other responsibilities.
Our Coached Plans are ideal for a busy lifestyle. Not only are they 100% customised, they are also flexible, meaning if something last minute comes up, your coach can edit your plan to suit.
Do you cater to all climbing grades?
We have experience working with athletes across a huge range of abilities; from those attempting their first V6 all the way up to professional rock climbers.
For a Coached Plan, in the last 12 months, you must have bouldered V5/6C or sport climbed 7a+/5.12a.

For a Flexibility Training Plan, in the last 12 months, you must have bouldered V4/6B or sport climbed 6b+/5.10+.
Am I too old to start training and pushing hard grades?
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.
Am I still able to climb for fun whilst I’m training?
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.
My technique needs work. Is this the plan for me?
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. Our coaches are able to offer some feedback from videos of you climbing, however, the focus of our plans is to develop your physical characteristics.

I worked with coach Fran for 9 months on improving my straddle and hamstring flexibility. At the beginning of this period, lower body flexibility for my biggest weakness. At the end of my 3rd plan, I don’t feel that flexibility is a limiting factor in my climbing. Most of my metrics (straddle width, depth of pike, strength in the end range positions, etc.) have significantly improved. My confidence on the low angle terrain has improved both indoor and outdoor. Coach Fran is really thoughtful and responsive, it was a pleasure working with her. She paid attention to my feedback and considered my circumstances when creating and adjusting the plans. When I find time to prioritize flexibility in the future, I’ll gladly come back to Lattice.

I am seeing the results of my training and enjoying the whole process. The coaches are always there if I have any questions and they give their best to fit the training plan to my liking and also to achieve my goals. It’s exactly what I wanted: a custom plan targeting flexibility for climbing.
Andrew –
Fran has been a very attentive and helpful coach, always happy to my questions about flexibility. In addition, she clearly paid close attention to my experience, goals and abilities and put together a great plan to focus on my weaknesses.
Bjoern –
Everything worked out, the exercises made sense to me, resulted in improvements and and the video feedback on the form was game changing. Apart from that I enjoyed getting instant valuable feedback from my coach Fran.
Dylan –
Fran is attentive, really knows her work, she knows how to communicate well and addresses anything I bring up about my mobility journey

The flexibility training improves my climbing in more ways than I expected. Sometime you can’t reach a hold, not because you’re not flex enough but because your position is not optimal. Moreover reaching a hold is good but if you can’t move after it’s useless. The flexibility coaching cover all this points.I got injured when climbing, after notifying my coach, he adapt my plan and I could continue training and recover faster 🙂

I could not recommend this Flexibility training plan enough! The app is very easy to use. I always knew flexibility was a big weakness of mine, but was reluctant to sign up because I almost felt like a lost cause. Fran was super encouraging from the beginning and always willing to help with adaptations. Now I am much more aware of the position and movement of my body on the wall and I have definitely made a lot of progress. I will sign up for another Flexibility plan later in the year for further improvement! It takes time and effort, but is definitely worth it. Thanks a million, Fran!!!

I would defo recommend a flexibility plan to all climbers. For me, it was a low hanging fruit as I never trained flexibility. My results on the wall and off the wall are life changing. I used to have a bit of back problems last year and now, they are gone due to the training. I feel like I move better on the wall, I can use my legs more efficiently when reaching further or higher holds. Fran is a great coach. Her positive energy and supportive attitude is wonderful and very much appreciated. The reviews and comments she gave me on my flexibility evolution and the form of the exercises are very valuable and detailed.

I am currently on my second 12-week flexibility plan and cannot rave about it enough!
I have been struggling with gaining flexibility my entire climbing life mostly due to a lack of knowledge surrounding the complex world of sports science regarding stretching/mobility exercises. My coach, Fran, is extremely knowledgeable and has a ton of experience in this space. Her in-depth plans and comprehensive explanations for each exercise and training block have no doubt been the reason for my success! I have been able to return to boulder projects which felt impossible and tick them off quickly and confidently with “flexy” beta I could never have done before!
It has been so motivating seeing the gains come in from week to week. From my knee pain going away almost entirely, to feeling strong in body positions on the wall that I could have only dreamed of getting into a few months ago, my only regret is that I didn’t start the Lattice Flexibility course sooner!
Thank you so much Fran and Lattice!

The lattice flexibility plan completely changed my climbing. As a tall climber (6’4) I’ve always struggled with fitting into the right box for certain climbs and always blamed it on being “too weak”. Finally I had my eyes opened and realized it wasn’t a strength issue at all, it was a mobility issue. After doing the flexibility training, I made huge strides in my climbing and how I felt on the wall. I was also better able to identify other weaknesses because they are no longer masked by positional weaknesses. This was by far the most influientatial and biggest gains I’ve had in my climbing career thus far.

I knew that flexibility was my weakness, but wasn’t really sure where to start improving it. I found the key areas to work on with Lattice’s flexibility assessment, and more importantly I received a detailed and well structured plan to begin training. I’d always done some stretching and mobility work, but Lattice’s exercises really broadened my view of flexibility training and I started to see results after just a couple of weeks of training. I did two 12 week blocks. Coach Aiden was really helpful, answered any questions I had and helped me to stay positive all the time.
I really can see the difference when climbing, everything just feels better and my technique has improved also. I’m better at heel hooks, high steps and I have more options for my feet as I can use them with a bigger range of motion. I even sent my first 7C boulder, which was a big goal and this year has been my best overall. I would definitely recommend the Flexibility Training Plan to anyone who wants to improve their climbing performance!

For years, I’ve been in and out of yoga classes and have gone through countless follow-along videos, because I’ve wanted to improve my flexibility. I’ve got tight hamstrings, a stiff lower back, and limited hip mobility due to an old groin injury. Earlier this year, I decided I wanted to really work on these weaknesses, so I signed up for flexibility training. I worked with Aiden over the course of two 12-week blocks. We mostly focused on shoulders and hips. (I didn’t even know my shoulder mobility was that limited)
It took some time to get used to the exercises. However, it was very helpful that 1) the program would contain links to videos of each exercise and 2) I would send Aiden recordings and he would assess my form. Within a few weeks, I could sense significant improvement. My splits were wider than ever. I can sit criss-cross on the floor without my knees aching. When I’m on the wall, high steps were no issue at all. Plus heel hooks became much easier to place.
Through this program, my side split got wider by 22 degrees. My flash went up by two letter grades. And overall, I just feel much more limber and balanced. Of all the types of training I’ve invested time into, this was the one that resulted in the most gains. I highly recommend it.

I decided to start flexibility training after recovering from a back injury – after nearly a year of moving stiffly I’d lost a lot of my range of motion and I did not know how to get it back without potentially causing more pain/repeating the problem. Josh was absolutely brilliant to work with – he was really knowledgeable and took a lot of time and effort to find exercises that worked for me and slowly but surely I got back to my ‘normal’ range of motion and surpass it. It was great to work on strength at end ranges as well as just passive stretches, and I can really feel this difference whilst climbing. I’ve gone from feeling like a stiff robot on the wall to finding some flow again which is great 🙂 High steps and heel-to-hand moves especially feel much better!
Borja Revuelta –
Back in September last year, I decided to train my flexibility and really commit to it. Not just because I wanted to climb harder and it was an issue on my climbing, but mainly because I had struggled with lumbago and lower back problems for a long time. After trying a lot of coaches, physios and yoga teachers, I was fortunate enough that the flexibility program from Lattice was released at the same time I was checking their other climbing training plans.
Needless to say, I’ve improved to not touch my toes (nor my ankles, almost) to fist-to-floor and almost palms to floor. Surely, it takes a lot of commitment and time, and having 40min dedicated to flexibility after your climbing session, plus daily stuff to do, can feel tedious… but the results are definately worth it. I highly recommend Josh, couldn’t be happier with him. The support and additional information to flexibility I’ve gotten in the last 6 months is being brilliant and super helpful to my progress as an athlete.

Always struggled with my flexibility so i decided to focuss my training on this issue. I feel a lot of progress in my movement on the wall. High steps were always impossible for me but now they work. Feels really awesome.
What I didn’t expect is a lot of improvement in my heel and toe hooks. Before I placed them in position but now they really work and I can pull hard on them. Before that was a big weakness in big overhangs, now my legs feel like additional arms!

I have gotten a lot stronger over the past few months from ticking one V7 and projecting V5s in a session or two to now having ticked 2 V8s and flashing, or just a few attempts to tick, most V5s that I have tried. I could only attribute this to the stretching and increased flexibility. I feel a lot more confident on the wall and people have noticed my increased flexibility, which further tells me this is working. Also due to your explanations, I have gained more of an awareness of my movement and how to get the most out of it.

Flexibility was a real weakness for me before doing this plan. I’m no gymnast now, but I can definitely notice the difference where it counts; on the wall. This is especially the case with awkward heel hooks and high steps. The plan was meticulously personalized to my specific goals, and my coach, Josh, was top-notch; always there to lend a hand and very fast to respond to questions. I can’t recommend this plan enough.
Michael M –
I am really pleased with the flexibility plan. I started from, what I consider, a low base and actually my first obstacle was to overcome extreme post climbing stiffness and pain and from just a few weeks into the plan this was hurdle was overcome. Since then Josh has helped every step of the way to slowly improve my mobility and this has allowed me make real progress on my winter bouldering project! The feedback is great and Josh is always there to answer any questions and we often use video footage of me doing exercises so he can help fine tune things. I have been looking for something like this for a ling time and it’s just great that it now exists for the climbing community; it will take a lot of personal commitment but what ever you are willling to give Josh and team will be there with you every step of the way.
Caitlin Vitale –
This flexibility plan was amazing! As an already-pretty-flexible climber, I have held off on plans like this, but I am so happy that I chose to try it out. Josh worked with me to develop not only flexibility but also more strength in those flexible positions, and I have been feeling the benefits in my climbing already. The care that was taken in building up the plan, in feedback, and in following up with any questions was really well done and I felt really supported throughout my plan! This training is for everyone- even if you think you are already flexible!
Travis Broadhurst –
Just finished my first 12 week block of flexibility training and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My mobility has increased drastically in the areas we focused on and it’s translated directly to my climbing in many ways. I’ve recently realized mobility was one of my major limiting factors when it came to climbing performance. I spent a year trying to address mobility myself only to see a slight improvement, in 3 months of training with lattice I’ve improved 2 letter grades in my ability to flash gym routes. If mobility is a major weakness for you I couldn’t recommend this more!
