A 'must-have' for any climber — written to aid climbers of all abilities, improving both technique and confidence


A dynamic package of training material from a pair of expert coaches, The Self-Coached Climber offers comprehensive instruction, from the basics of gripping holds to specific guidelines for developing a customised improvement plan.

Dan Hague and Douglas Hunter base their methods on the four fundamental components of all human movement: balance, force, time, and space — and explain how to apply these principles to achieve efficient results.

The book includes 52 practical training exercises designed to advance technique, detailed anatomical illustrations that explain climbing physiology, and an 85-minute DVD that shows concepts in action and presents live demonstrations of training exercises, as well as an original documentary of a 5.14a/b redpoint attempt by Adam Stack and Chris Lindner.
