The Rock Warrior’s Way: Mental Training for Climbers

Ilgner, a climber since the early ‘70s, has developed a seven-step mental training process for climbing. Mental training is scarcely covered in the climbing literature, yet it is as important to performance as strength, flexibility, and technique. In his unique approach, Ilgner draws from the rich ‘warrior’ literature, as well as from sports psychology, and combines these with his extensive climbing experience. This is a revolutionary program for climbers who want to improve both their performance and their enjoyment of climbing. Critically acclaimed.
