Indoor climbing has become one of the fastest-growing junior sports in the UK, US and Europe. Olympic inclusion in Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024 has driven a generation of new climbers into the gym. But the climbing book market has not caught up - every comprehensive climbing book on the shelf is written for adult self-coached climbers.
Climb to Succeed is the book the junior climbing community has been waiting for. Comprehensive, evidence-based, and written with the junior athlete, the parent, and the coach equally in mind.
What's Inside - 33 Chapters Across 6 Sections + 6 Appendices:- Own the Sport - what climbing is, the three Olympic disciplines, why climb, community and culture, goal-setting
- Own the Equipment - shoes, harnesses, ropes, gym vs crag, budgeting honestly
- Master the Technique - bouldering, sport climbing, speed climbing, knots and belaying, falling and safety
- Train to Improve - climbing-specific strength, power and power-endurance, hangboarding (with junior-safe guidance), mobility, periodisation
- Compete and Progress - bouldering / lead / speed competitions, BMC and USA Climbing pathways, mental skills
- Live the Sport - junior nutrition, sleep and recovery, injury management, parents' guide, coaches' guide
- Plus three new chapters: When and What (a junior climbing decision tree), Female Junior Climbing, After Junior - The Long Arc
- Six appendices: 25 movement-technique drills, climber-specific injury rehab protocols, three 12-week training plan templates, glossary, resources, sample training week
- Junior Athletes (12-21): bouldering, lead and speed technique; training that respects your growing body; the path from local club to GB Climbing or USA Climbing junior squads
- Parents: reassurance, practical guidance, and the language to speak with coaches confidently. Helmets, harnesses, hangboard age limits, and how to recognise good safeguarding
- Coaches: junior development reference - programming around growth-plate considerations, age-appropriate progressions, and the long-game coaching that builds climbers who stay in the sport
- Adult Beginners: the technique chapters, equipment guides, and safety chapters serve any new climber - junior framing where useful, adult considerations noted where they differ
Evidence-based throughout - drawn from BMC, GB Climbing, USA Climbing, peer-reviewed sport science, and the lived experience of coaching junior climbers from first session to international level. The hangboard chapter alone could be the most important chapter you read about your child's climbing.
The To Succeed Coaching Team has written the definitive junior climbing guide. Whether your athlete climbs in a London bouldering centre, a US climbing gym, a Spanish limestone crag, or their first outdoor session at the Peak District - this book will help them climb safely, smartly, and for life.
The first comprehensive junior climbing book. Finally.
