Feeling stuck in your climbing is frustrating enough. But not knowing why you’re stuck keeps you there.

Beyond Grades is here to help you figure out what's actually holding you back, so you can stop guessing and start putting your effort where it matters.

Your solution might not be in the numbers.

You’re showing up consistently and trying hard, but it doesn’t feel like you’re getting anywhere.

  • You leave the gym frustrated, but unsure what to do differently next time

  • Your sessions feel random, and you’re not confident they’re adding up to anything

  • You keep working on the same things, but the results aren’t changing

Most of the time, the issue isn’t effort. It’s knowing where to focus it.

I’ve been there.

In 2019, I was 3.5 years into a plateau. I had sent my first:

→ V9 in 2014

→ V10 in 2015

→ and V11 in 2016

But then season after season came and went without sending V12.

By the end of 2019, I was frustrated, wondering what the holdup was.

I thought, “there must be something physical missing”, so I bought a strength assessment.

I did the pull-ups, the fingerboard tests, the conditioning assessments, and eagerly awaited the findings.

But the results came back showing I already had all the strength markers to climb V12. I should have felt excited, or relieved at the very least. But instead, I just felt lost.

I had put all my hopes into a set of numbers telling me the way forward.

But the actual gaps in my climbing wouldn’t have shown up on this strength assessment.

These numbers couldn’t show that I stayed in my comfort zone and avoided styles that challenged me. They couldn't show my perfectionist tendencies, or that I was always looking for a way around big, powerful moves.

Most of all they couldn't show that I didn't actually believe I could do it.

The numbers had become a scapegoat.

In 2021, I finally sent V12. Not because my numbers changed, but because I started paying attention to the things the numbers couldn't measure.

That's exactly what I built Beyond Grades to help you do too.

The Beyond Grades Framework

The Beyond Grades Framework ✳

Grades don’t tell the whole story.

This course is built around 5 Key Areas to get a deeper look at your climbing, not just the numbers attached to it.

Together, these areas help you build a clearer picture of where your climbing is currently, and where your effort will actually make a difference.
