How to Write a Climbing Training Program in 3 Steps

By Tom June 17th, 2021

Share this post:

Not all climbers are able to have a training plan written for them by a coach – whether it’s for budget reasons or because they prefer to self-coach themselves along their climbing journey. if that sounds like you, then relax, because i’m going to take you through a 3-step process for writing your own climbing training program.

Whether you’re a sport climber, trad climber, a boulderer or a mix of them all, these methods will help you decide on your strategy for the year or season. Ultimately, the goal is to make more efficient improvements in  strength , fitness or any other aspect of your climbing.

Success is built around three key considerations:

• The first is working out your “before and after” measurements, or performance metrics.
• Second is the timescale of the plan, including priorities.
• Lastly is the structuring of your training and selection of individual sessions that work with your schedule and the facilities you have available!

Some important considerations before you start:

• Fingers: Without a doubt, this is the area of the body where we see the most injuries across all disciplines. This means that it’s the one you’ve got to pay the most attention to! Most issues occur when climbers step up the loading of their plan too much, too quickly. Keep reminding yourself to train like a tortoise and not a hare!
• Too much of the same thing: We all do it, because it feels good. We get into a preferred niche style of climbing or training and then constantly hammer it, such as climbing on a Moonboard for 9 out of 10 sessions. Do not do this. Keep it broad and maintain variety — your performance depends on it.
• Plan realism: Can you actually follow your plan? We watch climbers every year create brilliant plans, but they’re just not realistic on multiple fronts. You can only follow a plan if it’s completely realistic in the long term and won’t be sabotaged the first week.
• Motivation: Not all training is easy, in fact it’s exactly the opposite! Be careful to make plans for your sessions that are motivating to follow. If you don’t, it’s highly likely you’ll lose your psych within the first month or so.

STEP 1 – Before and After

A good training plan is always underpinned by an understanding of where you’re at now and where you want to be. You need to ensure you have a way of tracking your progress and success!

I’d like to suggest that all climbers look at three areas of performance which are practical and useful for measuring. The first is grade, because it’s the most specific performance indicator to your goals—after all, it’s the numeric way we describe the difficulty of climbing goals. Secondly, you should have some basic measurements of strength, endurance and flexibility. Most climbers nowadays are aware of how to test finger strength on a fingerboard and this is a great place to get started if you’ve already got experience in fingerboarding. If not, then pull ups or flexibility are a good option. Lastly, movement styles and your proficiency in specific areas can be measured quite easily—it’s as  simple as “I couldn’t do a two-handed dyno in January, but now I’ve done over 10 from V2-V4!”

Tasks I Recommend:

• Write down six grades boundaries from where your maximum is right now all the way down the scale e.g. V6, V5, V4, V3, V2, V1. Then create a grid of what you ticked in each grade over the last three months. Now spend the next year tracking what you complete in three month blocks—it’ll tell you a lot!
• Decide on three basic training metrics you’d like to track. Try to keep them sport-specific and repeatable. It’s no good having a test that you’re only capable of doing once a year because the equipment is too hard to get hold of.
• List two types of climbing moves you find hard to execute now and describe what a successful outcome would look like  e.g. “right now I can’t climb on steep terrain without my feet cutting loose, but in six months I would like to complete most steep V3s in the gym with controlled feet on my flash goes.”

STEP 2 – Timescales

Funnily enough, creating a timescale around a plan is a part that many people fall down on, because they see training as an open-ended task, which in some ways it is. However, without defining the edges of your plan, it’s very hard to fill in the steps in between. It’s also really important to factor in how much time you have to achieve certain improvements and whether this is even realistic. For example, power endurance fitness can be achieved within six to eight weeks, but lasting gains in strength (i.e. structural rather than neural) will take much longer.

The other element to timescales (or the timeline of the plan) that climbers typically neglect is how to account for  holidays, family commitments, work, travel etc. We all know that these other commitments exist and will likely have an impact on training, so it makes sense to plan with them in mind! There really is no reason to bury your head in the sand.

• Set a date for your goal and then allow for at least two weeks either side of it. Performance often doesn’t happen quite as you pinpoint, so plan for a “window” rather than a narrow “slot” of time.
• Look at  each of your “before and after” metrics and describe how the progress to achieving them will look. This is often the point where you realise some of them may be unrealistic.
• Make a note of all your other life commitments that will occur during the training period  and categorise them for their impact on your time, recovery, stress and nutrition. If you notice that there are three things all having a big impact on stress in a single month, it may be time for a reality check!

STEP 3 – Plan Writing and Session Choice

The last step—note that this is the last step, not the first—is to fill in the fine details of exactly what you get up to day after day, week after week. I’ve overstated this “last not first” ordering because over the last 10 years of teaching training plan writing to coaches around the world, I’ve noticed that this is the part that people always want to do first! They can’t wait to get into all the details of what’s going to happen to make the gains, but  then forget about the big picture, which can seriously derail their own efforts.

This last step, in reality, takes a lot of  practice and patience . Don’t expect to produce a perfect plan in an afternoon, but do make constant adjustments on your plans over the years as you learn more about yourself. I’ve been doing this for over twenty years in a variety of sports and I’m still learning how to do things better.

Because this last bit has a lot to it, Ollie has made a video below that walks you through the entire plan writing process, so you can watch it, pause it and work on your plan. If you want to skip steps 1 and 2, then just start at 5.27 in the video.

Don’t forget that like training, the planning part is also a process which you’ll improve at over time. Stick at it, as it’s well worth it!

I was also looking for the feature to add a custom workout. Is it still on the roadmap? It would be very helpful.

Thanks, Bruno

It’s still a bit of a way out for full custom workouts. At the moment we’re working on custom fingerboard workouts and hope to have it out around mid July ’22.

Any chance of an update to the Crimpd app that would allow users to build their own plan by adding workouts to their calendar? It would also be great to add a “custom” workout option with an ability to estimate “load.” For example, if I did a hangboard workout that isn’t pre-built on the app (e.g., 7×13 repeaters) I could add that workout to my calendar and estimate the category/load based on the load associated with similar workouts. That way I can still use the load feature to estimate the global and specific fatigue I’ve accumulated through training.

I appreciate all the insights and hard work, Cheers!

Hi Allen, yes this feature is planned to be released in August! We’re testing the final version of it at the moment, so it’s very very close…

CAREER PLANNING

How to Write a Training Request Letter [Samples Inside]

January 24, 2022

Hiring employees is one thing but getting them to yield desirable results is the sum of many factors, including training. Proper training and professional development are indispensable to forward-thinking firms but are often left to HR—who might be already overwhelmed.

A company needs to understand that employees are an invaluable resource and invest in employee training for long-term performance and productivity.

According to the World Economic Forum report, 50% of employees will need reskilling in four years. You might know that improving your proficiency will help you play your role better, but how do you convince your employer to support your training needs?

Here you can find out how to write a letter to your employer to ask for additional training and advance your career.

What Is a Training Request Letter?

A training request letter is a formal way to request your boss to fund training courses relevant to your work. For instance, if you’re a teacher, you might write a request letter asking for support and permission to attend training that you believe will enhance your students’ performance.

However, you need to be careful to express yourself without being misunderstood. A properly written request letter can turn the tide for your career . Apart from gaining more skills, if given the go-ahead, you’re better positioned to vie for a promotion in the future,

On the other hand, several things could go wrong, especially when your motives are not clear. Your boss might get the impression that you’re taking advantage of the company’s generosity to prepare yourself for an exit to a better-paying job.  

Tips for Writing Your Training Request Letter 

A training request letter is addressed to your company’s management, and its tone should be professional. As such, you should do whatever it takes to improve the chances of your boss granting your request. Here are some things you need to do before writing your training letter.

Choose Your Training Carefully

While many companies are happy to support their employees’ professional development, keep in mind that it can be a costly venture, and you need to choose a no-brainer course. Go for a program whose benefits for both you and your employer are clear. If possible, leverage scholarship opportunities to save money.

Keep in mind that not all courses translate to value. When your boss sees the potential ROI of investing in your training, they are highly likely to support you without much persuasion. Can you prove that you can apply what you will learn? Will you gain new, relevant skills for your role?

Quantic Learning provides a one-stop solution for learner-driven remote learning, with instructors ensuring their learners actively take part in learning while getting timely feedback to reinforce knowledge. Employers know that learning by doing is the key to the best results.

Present More Than One Option

Now that you know what type of training you need, consider including additional training options to allow flexibility in time and costs. The most common methods for professional development in the workplace include:

• Instructor-led training
• Online courses

eLearning provides excellent alternative training programs from online MBAs to traditional learning methods, like instructor-led training. Learners can take lessons when convenient to them, and they don’t have to spend time traveling to attend class.

Again, Quantic Learning comes out as a practical option for additional training in the workplace. Quantic’s Online MBA program offers unrivaled flexibility, desirable to working professionals who don’t wish to quit their jobs. The program’s affordability and value will win over any employer.

What Does the Employer Get Out of It?

Before requesting training, you need to do your research and identify how it will benefit your employer. It’s imperative to highlight these benefits in your letter. Mention the skills you will gain and how they can impact your leadership style to propel your team to success.

Show Them a Clear ROI

Your employer needs to know that they are making the right move by supporting your training. 

You need to point out how you intend to leverage the skills you will gain. For instance, if you’re a marketing professional, you could mention how upskilling could help meet the goals set in your marketing strategy.

For instance, if you’re intensifying awareness of your product on digital platforms, it might not be possible without digital marketing skills. With improved digital marketing literacy, it’s only a matter of time before the company actualizes set objectives.

One way to prove training ROI is by measuring the outcomes effectively. You can come up with metrics whose benefits show the tangible results of your training. Some measurable indicators you can implement are as shown in the table below.

Do Your Research

Identifying your training needs is just the first step. A lot more goes into employee training. You will need to find time for learning, and your employer will need to facilitate it without interrupting the workflow,

Therefore, you need to look up several options and find the most cost-effective one. You can look up several online courses and list the best-reviewed yet affordable options. If you need technical training, you can attend an accredited certification course instead of a degree.

Read the reviews from students as this will give you the best understanding of the experience. Quantic students have even created their own reviews and shared their knowledge and exposure to the Quantic programs. 

Express Your Loyalty / Commitment to the Company

Nobody likes feeling short-changed, and employers are no exception. If they agree to fund employee training, it’s because they want to reap the benefits. You need to make it clear that you intend to stay committed and use your newfound skills for the company’s good.

Get Help From Other Professionals

The professional world is highly dynamic, and there is a vast selection of courses available. If you’re unsure of what would best suit your needs, you can consult other professionals who’ve been in the field for a longer period. They are in a vantage position to recommend the most relevant options available.

Letter Format for Training Request

Like every other formal letter, there are acceptable formats when writing a letter to request training. Here is a simple guide:

Training Request Letter Sample

Here is a sample training request letter. 

More Letter for Training Request Examples

Various scenarios will require you to write training request letters. A few of these are highlighted below.

You’re a Manager Faced With Onboarding Problems

When you are in charge of new employees, it can be challenging to get started. Requesting onboarding training could make things easier. You simply need to use the sample request letter format above and make adjustments accordingly.

You’re a Supervisor Faced With a Professional Development Problem

As a supervisor, you might have a skill gap problem in your team that you can easily address through additional training. With the above sample letter, you’re good to go. Just make sure you state the specific training they need—for instance, SEO training for your digital marketing team.

You’re an Employee and Request Additional Training for Your Role

For instance, you’re a software developer who has seen the need for additional training in React to help boost your performance. Mention the training company you’d prefer and why you think it’s necessary.

Professional Development and Training Request Letter Template

Hi [ NAME ],

I'm reaching out today to discuss my professional development. As you know, I am eager to support the success of our team and organization, as well as continuously improve my own skills and grow professionally.

For that reason, I would like to attend [ PROGRAM NAME ] from Niagara Institute. This program stood out to me because [ EXPLAIN WHY IT INTERESTS YOU/ANY UNIQUE FEATURES ]. I believe my level of interest and commitment, the program will ultimately help [ LIST A FEW BENEFITS TO YOU AND THE ORGANIZATION ].

Here are the logistical details:

• [ START DATE ]
• [ TIMING - Include session dates and times]

Does [ ORGANIZATION NAME ] provide funding for professional development opportunities like this? If so, I would like to discuss what it would take to get this opportunity approved and funded so that I can begin on [ PROGRAM START DATE ].

Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you!

6 Tips for Writing a Great Professional Development and Training Request

1. base your justification around something tangible.

Employers are far more likely to approve and pay for professional development and training when it’s in response to something tangible. For example, were you told to improve your leadership skills in a recent performance review? Are you dealing with an ongoing issue or mistake ? Is there an imminent change or disruption in your industry? If so, use it to justify your professional development and training request. State something like, “As you know…” or “As you have told me…” and then follow it up with, “In light of this, I propose…”

2. Cite Case Studies and Testimonials to Support Your Selection

Did you know that 88% of consumers say reviews influence their online purchasing decisions? Or that 72% of consumers say positive testimonials and reviews increase their trust in a business? One way to strengthen your professional development and training request letter is to cite a great testimonial, review, or case study. Doing this not only gives your employer a sense of the credibility of the training and the provider you selected, but it also reassures them that you have done your due diligence and put thought into your request.

3. Circle Back to Your Company’s Core Values

It is quite common for companies to include continuous improvement or learning among their core values. For example, “We believe in investing in life-long learning” is written directly in HubSpot’s Culture Code , for not only employees but the world to see. If your company has something similar, you may cite it in your request for professional development and training to round out your justification. Say something like, “Not only is this opportunity closely aligned with my own commitment to my development, but with our company’s core value of learning as well.”

4. Prempetively Get More Information

One way to strengthen your professional development and training request is to preemptively ask the provider for more information, such as an in-depth program agenda, or to get answers to questions you have, or questions you think your employer may have. When you do this, you may also find out the provider offers incentives like group discounts or additional services like assessments, which can be appealing to some employers.

5. If Your Request Gets Rejected, Reformulate It and Try Again

Say your request for professional development and training gets rejected. Instead of immediately letting it go, consider the rationale you were given. Depending on what that rationale is, you may just need to reformulate your original plan. For example, it is not uncommon for employers to reject a request of this nature given the timing. If this is the case, you may be able to try representing it with a new date or timeline that is farther in the future.

6. Ask Your Provider for Support

Last but certainly not least, you can always turn to your chosen professional development and training provider for additional support. It is likely they have additional resources and documents prepared for this exact reason! You can also ask if they would be willing to speak with your employer and provide them with additional information to more in-depth questions. This is something Niagara Institute’s team does on a regular basis for everyday leaders who want to get their requests over the finish line.

Sample Cover Letter For A Graduate Trainee

Cover letter sample for a graduate trainee.

Organizations have been inviting graduates to apply for their graduate trainee programs, with the latest being advertised by Total Kenya and De La Rue. There may be others that you have come across in the recent weeks and if you are still yet to apply, you might be in the process of applying. That you are a graduate is only the first and most important qualification. However, getting picked from a pool of other graduates will require that you sell yourself accordingly through your CV and cover Letter.

Your Cover Letter will be the document accompanying your CV and probably the first thing employers and recruiting managers will see before even opening your CV. So, how well written is your cover letter? Does it compel recruiters and employers to open your CV? If you are having difficulties fitting important information on a page, below is a sample you can use. And here is one for a banking job when there is no advert.

hallo, how do i write a cover letter for a sales trainee position without an advert?

Hi perminus,thanks for the good work you doing.My question is when you come across job advert which doesn’t have the Name and the address of the company,how do you apply about this?

God will always bless your work. I like your articals. They are very helpfull.

Good stuff. Could you please do a sample cv for a graduate trainee? preferrably one with a degree or so, in Project Planning and Management.

Very important piece.. Thank you

you have such good tips.my concern is some vacancies are rare.example for graduathe in analytical vacancies and industrial chemistry.how do you help such graduates??

quite informative, but would you please help me understand while making an online application, do I have to write my cover letter directly or send it as an attachment!

Hi, I had earlier on pointed out on the flaws in a previous cover letter you had posted, and i honestly wonder if you take the comments we make here seriously. I am a Communication and PR student, and the letters that you post a sample of, am afraid that they are the ones my instructor tells me critical HR personnels would dismiss without having a second glance at. However, i won’t tire correcting:

The applicants name is not part of the sender’s address. Just write your address directly of you do not have an address of reference currently.

The date is not written on the recipient’s address but after the sender’s address and its suitable format is e.g, April 8, 2016.

In this age of the new media where we have the internet at our disposal, it’s pitiable of one to write dear Sir /Madam. This is what we call a ‘blind address’. You can easily know the gender of the person you are addressing your letter to. Not the capitals in Sir, Madam, in the salutation. Incase you use this, at the foot of your letter it will be-Yours faithfully… But in case you use the name instead it will be, yours sincerely.

The lette’s votehead is in this case missing but just to note, one should apply for employment, recruitment… But not for a vacancy or post.

You contact details come after your name. Eg Yours faithfully, signnature Sam. E-mail: Phone:

Finally, it does not hurt to end your letter with a thank you.

Several other corrections are to be made in the body, but i’ll leave it at that. NB: just an honest correction. Am an ardent follower of this website and since i perceive it to be proffessional, i correct it humbly.

Feedback always appreciated: E-mail: [email protected] Phone: 0704694734

This site is of much help to the job market needs.Kindly post one for a hr opportunity.thank you

Dear Mwangi, We do not ‘blacklist’ any candidate and you are welcome to apply for any vacancy that suits you. If you have identified a position that suits you, contact the recruitment officer who had interviewed you earlier on. Wishing you the very best. Regards, Perminus

thanks.this is very helpful

Wow thanks alot for such a wonderful cover letter….it’s so helpful to me since am a graduate searching for graduate trainee positions, entry level job or even internship for the experience gained. God bless.

Morning, Per minus, Good article and I haile what you do for the unemployed youth. I however, in my comments must have made a positive criticism that you or your staff might have not liked me for Or a contact to either of my referee might have given u a waylaid judgement about me. Why?, ~ how do you explain me applying for jobs that am outrightly qualified for and not getting even an interview information. I first thought it was undoing of my resume which I used a sample posted by you, and still!, I couldn’t get an invitation?!, keeping in mind that I travel overnight to attend your interviews from Eldoret. Am either forced to think that my original c.v. was just okay to warrant an interview with you or you have blacklisted me for your future recruitment practises which I found very wanton (if that’s the case) since this should be a national recruiter free of prejudice, favourism and clear of corruption. I am a worthy employee and I have the papers (in your database if not erased). All am asking is a fair chance. I don’t mind the trips if I loose an interview to the better person but let attend them if am qualified. NB: Periodically communicate the follies of an otherwise potential employee so that he can clinche the next interview. Thats what makes a cutting edge from the rest recruiting company. So that you know. I will still use corporate staffing for my job search. Thank you.

Thanks.This is very useful

Further things to consider when writing application letters to schools

Application Letters

Application letters are letters that you write to formally request for something from authority, apply for a job, or join an institution. Effective application letters will give a detailed explanation for your interest in the specific item, company, or institution. They showcase your abilities and strengths and illustrate your experience. In most cases, people write application letters to express their interest in receiving a position, attending an institution, or when applying for a visa, for instance. In all scenarios, application letters must be accompanied by the relevant documents. Application letters are the perfect tool to demonstrate something of your personality. Therefore, you should write in a professional tone setting a clear outline that allows the reader to scan the primary data quickly. Introduce yourself and briefly explain your intent and reason for the application. Address the letter with a title or name of the recipient. If your application is for a job or to join an institution, for example, you need to highlight your experience and qualification; if you are applying for a travel visa, make sure to state a clear intention for your travel. End with a positive tone and invite the recipient to contact you.

Letters to Schools

Letters to schools are letters written to institutions designed to provide learning environment and spaces to pupils and students. There are many times when you may feel the need to write to a school administration. Maybe you want to recommend a student or employee or want to apply for an academic program. Perhaps your child has a disability, and you want to make sure that he/she is receiving special education services. Whatever the issue, putting your thoughts in writing avoids confusion since it provides you and the recipient with a record of your request. It is, therefore, crucial to keep a copy of any letter you send. All letters to schools must use the standard business letter style. Start your letter with the proper address and salutation. Introduce yourself and explain the reason for your letter clearly and concisely. Depending on the content of your letter, provide any documentation that gives the recipient reference to the case or clarifies your concerns. Keep the tone polite, respectful, and professional. Close by thanking the recipient for his/her time and with a note of anticipation of positive feedback. Sign off and proofread the final draft before sending it.

Request Letter to Attend Training Course

A request letter to attend a training course is a letter that is written by an employee who is planning to attend a training course. It is addressed to the employer of an organization. In this letter, the employee attempts to explain and convince the employer about the benefits of the training course. In addition, he may also request that the employer cover the expenses of the training as well as apply for work leave.

When an employee wants to attend training, especially if it would affect his work or he needs favors from his employer, he should formally inform the employer about the training course he is proposing to attend. For this purpose, the employees usually opt to write a formal request letter to attend a training course and seek the employer’s permission through it.

This letter can include varying information, depending on:

• Training description.
• Costs and expenses, and the bearer of those.
• The trainer’s credentials
• The company requirements.
• The associated advantages, etc.

However, in a general template of a request letter to attend a training course, the following information is included:

• Details of the employer.
• Details of the employee.

Sample Letter

Dear Ms. Sarah,

I am writing this letter to request your permission to attend a training session from August 1st, 20XX to August 9th, 20XX.

I have been working as an assistant marketing manager at ABC Limited for over three years. I believe that constant training and development aid in the improvement of skills as well as lead to career progression. For my career advancement and higher chances of promotion, learning XYZ software is critical. As you know, it is the latest software in the industry, that has become an essential part of the success of marketing strategies and tactics.

A well-known marketer, Mr. [X], is offering a training workshop, specifically for teaching the functionality of this software. The workshop will start on 1 st August 20XX, and end on 9 th August 20XX. I am interested in this workshop and want to learn this latest software. However, I need your permission to attend it, as it will be a full-day, every-day, workshop, which means I will be needing off days for its duration. In addition, I want to request you to cover its expenses, which will be $[X].

I assure you that after this workshop, I will cover all the pending work. I also believe that the effects of this training course will certainly reflect in my work and productivity.

Kindly, accept my request for leave, and fund this training course. I will be highly grateful to you.

Thank you in advance.

Emily John.
