Even though off the rock, you’re a pretty adept breather, this month’s tip is reminding you to keep it up while you’re climbing too. “It’s easy to forget how important breathing is,” points out Ken Brukhart, “you’re focused on a tough move so you forget. It happens to everyone.” Even experienced climbers need a friendly nudge to inhale.

So what to do? Always remind yourself to breathe. Ken says, “you should repeat it over and over again: breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe.”
