"This is a book and DVD. A dynamic package of training material from a pair of expert coaches, ""The Self-Coached Climber"" offers comprehensive instruction, from the basics of gripping holds to specific guidelines for developing a customised improvement plan. Hague and Hunter base their methods on the four fundamental components of all human movement - balance, force, time, and space - and explain how to apply these principles to achieve efficient results. The DVD presents live demonstrations of training exercises and features an original documentary of a 5.14a/b redpoint attempt by Adam Stack and Chris Lindner."
