Climbing Tip: Use Your Feet, Not Just Your Arms

Ever feel like your feet just slide right off when you’re on harder routes? Yeah, same. Most of the time it’s not your shoes — it’s how you’re stepping. A lot of folks focus only on their hands and forget about their feet. They stomp or slap their whole foot on the hold and hope for the best. That doesn’t work. You gotta use your toes, place them slow and quiet, and shift your weight down bit by bit. Try the “quiet feet” trick next time: step like you don’t wanna wake the neighbors. It forces you to actually pay attention to your footwork — and boom, you’re way more stable. Save your arms, trust your toes. #Sports #climbing #boulderinglife #quietfootwork #hardroutes
