This AI searched 1000 climbs & made a perfect session
I let an Algorithm be my rock climbing coach and it actually helped!
KAYA recently debuted a new function where they automatically curate the climbs at your local gym and create workouts that target specific energy systems. They asked me to test out the feature and what I learned will impact my bouldering forever.
I did each of the workouts and along the way Coach Jess and I talked through how to use them to become a better self-coached climber.
One of the main takeaways I had was that this more structured form of climbing was beneficial for both my physical and mental health. Physically, it reduced the immense amount of stress on my fingers that has been destroying my PIP joints, and mentally it helped me tremendously to latch on to a particular goal and focus on accomplishing that.
The majority of the sessions are really approachable while still being productive, and I've incorporated the framework into my training since then (loosely following the perfect week protocol in the video).
I'm really grateful to KAYA for giving me the opportunity to test out this feature and for supporting this video! If you haven't yet, definitely download the app which is filled with TONS of amazing FREE features. I'm also a big advocate of KAYA Pro, but I think every climber should at least have the free version to connect with & learn from other climbers at their gym.
