Challenge interaction "Gamba!" focus

Article from Munich World Cup in 2017 Talking to many of the Japanese coaches and athletes in regards to their extreme recipe for success, it is about problem solving in a challenging interactive mode. There is no Japanese secret, they just go to the gym five times a week and basically just have fun doing and interacting on spectacular boulders, and stretch every day. The focus from their coaches is technique. Strengh weaknesses are solved by doing specific boulders rather than hanging on a campus board etc. In Munich there were five coaches filming and writing comments on their athlete feedback paper. The culture is about learning new things and interacting in order to optimize their performance. After the comp they talk to the route setters and then they all show up trying to solve the problems again, again and again. At the same time the after party starts, the Japanese have their after climb on the stage in their sneakers. Once their competitors are drinking beers, tape is put on trying to stop the blood in order to squeeze in some more crazy double or triple dynos. "Gamba!"

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders.
