A hard truth is still a truth.

Becoming a better climber isn't only about adding more weight to your max hang on a fingerboard or being able to deadlift 2x bodyweight. Frankly, what's more important is that you understand your motivations, your approach, and that you're honest with yourself about the amount of effort you put in - both on and off the wall.

This collection of essays, written over many years for The Power Company Climbing blog, will shine a light on those qualities that limit us the most. The qualities that are hard to measure but simple to manage. Simple that is, when backed with intention.

These essays are written about real climbers in real situations. Maybe you know some of them.

Maybe it's you.

About the Author
Hampton, Kris: - A climber of nearly 25 years, Kris Hampton fancies himself a modern-day renaissance man, having love affairs with painting, music, writing, and now building a business. He discovered his interest in movement through skateboarding and gymnastics, and now through Power Company Climbing helps thousands of climbers find their potential, which is as great a source of joy for him as sending his own projects. Addicted to learning via recording conversations for The Power Company Podcast, he's climbed 5.14 and V-double-digits and is currently trying to avoid the old-folks endurance retirement home by focusing on climbing harder boulders in his mid-40's.Leonard, Brendan: - Brendan Leonard is an award-winning storyteller, author and filmmaker, and a must-stop on your daily Instagram scroll (assuming you're able to laugh at yourself). As the creator of Semi-Rad.com, he's (accurately) been referred to as the voice of our generation of outdoor adventurers. A former contributing editor for Climbing Magazine, he's also written about climbing for Alpinist, Outside, National Geographic Adventure, and CNN.com. His books range from the trademark pointed humor of Bears Don't Care About Your Problems to the introspective inspiration of Sixty Meters to Anywhere. Addicted to collecting vintage hip hop vinyl, he has a love/hate relationship with running long distances and is currently working on making things.
