What is The Climb Strong Series?
The series is a periodized, yearly training program for rock climbers. Made and coached by a Kinesiologist, and certified strength & conditioning coach with over 20 years of experience in strength & conditioning for sports.
How Can You Benefit?
Climb strong is made for ALL climbers, whether you're projecting 5.14, or learning how to boulder outside for the first time. The program is made to adjust to your specifications as a person, as a climber, and to the appropriate level of training for you. Improve your strength, mobility, endurance and power on walls, whilst reducing chances of injury for a more fulfilled and whole climbing experience!
What to Expect.
The training program is broken down into 5 six-week long training blocks, each focusing on different areas needed to improve your climbing. Our next block, TRAIN FOR STRENGTH, focuses on developing near max strength. The development of this near max strength is one of the main pillars to developing power (next and final phase).

So last week, playing rugby. A member of the opposing team jumped on top of our maul, collapsed it, and the weight of the whole maul twisted my ankle and injured me. For those who aren't familiar with Rugby, this is an illegal move.

Today with a CT scan to confirm it, I was diagnosed with an avulsion fracture of my left lateral malleolus (aka ankle bone), with significant tearing of one of my tibulofibular ligaments. This was quite disappointing since it was the first game back for 2026, and I had barely played in the fall of 2025. I didn't even get a chance to make a tackle, my MOST FAVORITE thing to do in rugby because it was 5 min. Anyways, journey goes on. I'll be pivoting, and spending my time developing myself athletically in other ways until I can play again.

Athletes.
Ill be hobbling around the gym for a while longer using an aircast and crutch. But coaching and training goes on without a hitch.

I hope this serves as an example to all athletes to love your sport when you get the chance to love it. But dont allow obstacles to stop you from your goals. Just pivot, find a new path, and continue your growth.

Thanks to for sharing his cast and crutch with.
Thanks to for keeping on the right path during my rehab
Thanks to the for their amazing support.

It's 2026, this nice weather window has been great and it almost feels like climbing season is right around the corner! CLIMB STRONG SERIES is returning to in-person training starting Feb 2nd, in time to help you get back onto the boat for your training!

I had a great time presenting yesterday for the Squamish ACL support group on S&C and the steps needed to improve an ACL injury too 100% and beyond post injury or surgery.

Thank you for inviting to give this presentation. The ACL support group are people in Squamish who get together to find comradary, and community through the injury. With so many skier, bikers, and field athletes in the sea-to-sky, this is a fantastic group of people doing great work for each other. I was grateful for hopefully contributing a little to their community and injury journies.

Training season is back on. Now is the time to get ready for next climbing season, and Climb Strong at falllinefitness returns November 3rd!

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to work with a FANTASTIC team from of scientists, exercise physiologists, and coaches. We ran 45 🤯 VO2max tests on the .

It was great to be part of such a well oiled machine. The preparation alone was a massive undertaking done by the talented Stacey Hutton.

Thank you to for inviting to be part of their team.

Thank you to for trusting us with such an important test day.

From a coaching perspective, if you're not periodically testing your athletes, then there is no real way to know if your training is effective for their goals, and for the requirements of their sport. Tests should be evidence-based, and if possible, using the gold standard to test as often as possible. Collecting data is invaluable. Make it a priority resource in your arsenal for coaching.

Run Strong classes are back at falllinefitness this autumn. We are excited to get this class going again after having such a successful class last year. We have a few spots still available to fill so we are opening it up to the public.

Haven't joined one of our Run Strong classes before? Let me break it down a little for you here.

1) Small (6 people) strength & conditioning classes for runners made to be affordable, effective to your running and fun.

2) The class is led by a Kinesiologist, and strength & conditioning coach who specializes in running and strength for athletes.

3) We have this class so runners can have a safe and accountable way to improve their strength and increase their injury resiliency while they train for their first 5k, or are seasoned ultra runners.

4) Perks of being part of this class is that all athletes train like a team, creating a supportive and inclusive feeling, access to top end coaching, and technology to track and improve your training for you. And registered class members get access to VO2max and blood lactate testing (contact for more info).
