    Superb book
  

*by B***3 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 January 2012*

Although it's not aimed at beginners, I'm one (pretty much) and I found this book very useful. The main target readership is those who've been climbing for a good while, and made early progress but have reached a plateau.It's hard-hitting, no messing around. You feel exactly as if the author were standing there talking to you - in some places, giving you a talking-to. If this sounds hectoring, it's not - it's thought-provoking and encouraging.The essence of the message is to re-think which aspect of climbing you're putting the effort into, since it might not be the most effective for you in terms of improvement, particularly if it's something you've been doing for a while which initially helped a lot but has started to level off. He breaks down all the factors that contribute to improvement and explains how to work on each, eg fear of falling (covered in detail), strength, endurance, weight. The underlying psychology behind things is covered far better than you'd think such a short book could manage.It's opinionated. Eg climbing is always referred to as a very specific thing - movement up rock; not sure that ignoring cardio would be wise given the long walk-in and home that might well be part of trad/winter; but that's fair enough I guess: if that's what you're into, you'll know already you need to include that too. Tiny quibble, great book. I look forward to more and I'm enjoying his blogs.

    Written for me
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 June 2013*

Dave MacLeod could have been writing for me. The first sections describe almost perfectly my present experience in climbing and the psychological and emotional framework underpinning the difficulties I encounter.  MacLeod doesn't patronize with easy solutions and quick fixes; his goal is to establish long term changes in behaviour that will lead to a better climbing experience at higher grades. However some of his more straight forward suggestions are already bearing fruit.This is not necessarily a book for the beginner; not because the content is in anyway complicated or esoteric, but because I suspect new climbers need to make the mistakes described by MacLeod first before they can truly appreciate the insight he has. Having said that all climbers will benefit from this book at some point in their climbing career. It is essential reading.

    another of the nine!
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 March 2013*

As a relatively new climber (Aug 12) I picked up this book to read on a long train journey after buying it for my boyfriend (he hasn't read it yet) Its really struck a cord with me and Ive also scribbled pencil notes all over it much to my boyfriend dismay! It feels like it has given me a good basis on which to build it's has got me psyched after conquering my first 6a and 6a+ on the same day!(with a good coach I might add)Dave MacLeod is a straight talking no nonsense writer and I love that he helps you identify your weaknesses and feel positive about tackling them.
