## What is ClimbingCoach Training?

Increase your climbing strength, endurance, power, and conditioning with training that fits your time, equipment, experience, and climbing goals.

ClimbingCoach Training builds a complete, personalised plan in minutes—so you can stop guessing and start training with purpose. Simple et efficace.

YOUR PERSONALISED CLIMBING PLAN
Set your preferences and ClimbingCoach generates a plan weighted to you:
• Goals: sport climbing, bouldering, or both
• Time available per week and sessions per week
• Training days that suit your schedule
• Equipment and facilities you have access to (from none to fully equipped)

Plan options include 2, 4, or 12 weeks, or you can time training so you peak for an upcoming trip.

PERIODISATION, WITHOUT THE HEADACHE
ClimbingCoach uses proven training structure to focus the right qualities at the right time:
• Mixed, periodised cycles to develop key strength and energy systems
• Training categories such as finger strength, power, power endurance, aerobic endurance, and general conditioning
• Balanced work including antagonist muscles to support resilience
• A library of 120+ protocols, including climbing sessions, fingerboard, campus work, weights, calisthenics, and more

STRUCTURED, BUT FLEXIBLE
Your plan is generated automatically, but you stay in control:
• Swap exercises for suitable alternatives
• Change exercise order
• Adjust volume (more / less)
• Add your own exercises
• Cancel, defer, or delete items as needed
• Log extra climbing or training—your plan can adapt to what you actually did

You can also build your own sessions from the exercise library, or just use ClimbingCoach as a training log.

GUIDED WORKOUTS THAT KEEP YOU MOVING
Train step-by-step with the workout assistant:
• Built-in timers and interval guidance
• Adjustable difficulty and progressions as you improve
• Exercise guides with clear instructions and visuals
• Optional guided warm-ups
• Background notifications and sound cues during sessions
• Notes for each exercise, if you want them

TRACK YOUR PERFORMANCE
See progress that stays meaningful:
• Charts for overall performance and specific exercises
• Personal bests and weekly training time
• Anonymous community comparison against climbers who set the same max grade
• “Overall performance” reflects your current exercise performance versus your first time doing those exercises

### 2/5 — Is this app dead?

*2025-01-08, version 1.21.18*

I have liked this app thus far, to the extent that I bought the pro version ($50), but I can’t use any of the “ask a question” features… also, the web developers website doesn’t exist… I don’t even know if there is a way to get a refund since not all of the functions advertised work…

### 2/5 — Needs a real free trial

*2024-09-06, version 1.21.18*

Maybe this app is good but I wouldn’t know as it only is giving me one workout under the free trial. I would have expected at least a week or two to test as I’m not spending $ without that. 

Also they have sooo many annoying tutorials for how to use the app. If your UX is so bad that you have to teach what every button does, there is a problem. Just seems very amateur.

### 5/5 — Great training plans easily customized without effort

*2023-12-17, version 1.21.18*

I wanted a training app where I did not have to think too much about planning. This is perfect. Gave me a customized training plan quickly that looks great.

### 4/5 — Seems to be Unsupported

*2023-06-04, version 1.21.18*

This is a good app if you are self training. One of the best I’ve seen.  There are plenty of exercises. Although the grouping  and ordering can sometimes be confusing. Moving them around can be frustrating. Don’t schedule leading and bouldering in the same session. That’s a problem for people who are training by themselves.  emails to support have bounced back.

### 2/5 — Couldn’t use it :(

*2022-04-13, version 1.21.16*

Installed the app, but the button for accepting “terms and conditions” is covered up by the “create training plan” button. Sad, had good reviews, if it’s fixed I’ll give it another try.

### 1/5 — Not useable

*2022-03-30, version 1.21.16*

iPhone 7 - can’t click to agree to terms and conditions button and therefore not use the app.

### 5/5 — Best one for me!

*2022-01-18, version 1.21.14*

Not everything is finely resolved from a usability point of view yet, BUT this app just suits me best in comparison to all the others out there. I love the possibility to adapt the different areas like power or finger strength and the inclusion of the available equipment. It would be handy to additionally define, whether I‘m in the gym or at home at training days. Keep on going!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic training app

*2022-01-16, version 1.21.14*

I started using Climbing Coach 6 months ago when I needed a jump start to break my plateau. I committed to doing every workout for 8 weeks to see what would happen, and it totally worked! I’ve been climbing for 10 years and using this app helped me get back in a regular rhythm and build the muscle I needed to feel confident in my climbing again. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Amazing app.

*2020-05-05, version 1.21.6*

This is a pretty remarkable app. Everything has been thoroughly thought out. Layout and interface is extremely easy to use. It’s one of the few apps that actually motivates me to train because of how detailed it is. I may finally get stronger...

### 2/5 — Buggy and doesn’t work

*2020-04-16, version 1.21.0*

I like it, i tho k it’s great. BUT, the exercises change every time you go back in to the app. So you have a set schedule and the next time you go back it’s all jumbled and totally different. Not sure this app is full working yet?
