Coach Alex Stiger joins Neely to break down what a "plateau" actually is — because most climbers lump together very different problems under that one word, and that's part of why it's so hard to get unstuck.

In this episode:

  • The three patterns of progress: linear, growth-spurt, and wave
  • Four types of plateaus — psych, strength, grade, and mental — and why the fix is different for each
  • Why some plateaus don't need fixing at all
  • Zooming out before zooming in: consistency, overusing what already worked, trap grades, recovery, and structure
  • Alex's story of climbing better while getting weaker, and what that reveals about false narratives
  • Practical tools to progress in every session
  • Why changing your partner, gym, or discipline is one of the fastest ways out of a rut

Alex has three coaching spots open right now for the first time in a long time! Email her at alex@trainingbeta.com to work with her.
