Mental training is scarcely covered in climbing literature, yet it is as important to performance as strength, flexibility, and technique. In his unique approach to mental training, Arno Ilgner draws essential elements from the rich "warrior" literature, as well as from sports psychology, and combines these with his extensive climbing experience to create The Rock Warrior's Way. Here is a comprehensive program to learn how to focus your mental resources during a challenging climb.
