TBP 093 :: Matt Pincus on Training Through Injuries and Transitioning from Bouldering to Routes

Matt Pincus is a good friend of mine and he's my right hand man at TrainingBeta. He's basically the person who keeps this website running. He manages and writes the blog, he manages our social media presence, and he's added Online Climbing Trainer to his resume. Matt is a boulderer and a sport climber based out of Jackson, Wyoming, and currently living in his van on the road. He’s climbed up to 5.14a and V12 and is constantly changing and tweaking the ways he trains as he learns new things. Because of his success with his own training and climbing, he began training others. Matt’s ability to listen to people’s needs, his attention to detail, and his keen interest in all things training contribute to his ability to create effective training plans for his clients. I wanted to talk with him about how he approaches training people online, as well as his own climbing and training. If you're interested in training with Matt after listening to this interview, you can sign up to work with him at www.trainingbeta.com/matt.
