What You Will Learn

During the two days, coaches will learn to accurately and effectively assess the climber’s physical qualities, including finger strength, contact strength, and endurance.

In a hands-on environment, coaches will also learn the components of practical and effective warm-up exercises and procedures before on and off-wall training.

Coaches will then learn how to coach, cue, demonstrate effectively, and program exercises for their athletes.

Exercises range from simple bodyweight exercises to proper deadlifting and squatting technique as well as on-wall training protocols.

Coaches will learn how to manage their team's physical preparedness throughout the competitive calendar year and integrate it effectively into their team's skill training.

Coaches will also learn the important nuances of training the youth to provide effective strength training that is safe and health promoting.


Why The C4PC is Different

We help coaches become better coaches.

Most educational experiences are simply lecture, course, or book based. Camp4 Performance Certified coaches must complete a thorough proficiency process to pass the course. Coaches are provided with written material to read and study before taking a PASS/FAIL online test before attending the in-person course. The course concludes with coaches passing a practical examination, testing the coach’s ability to demonstrate and coach exercises with proficiency and think critically in real time.
