Welcome to Alli Rainey Training (ART), where training for climbing is state of the ART!

Powered by TOTALCOACHING.COM, “the most efficient health promotion tool on the web,” I offer an online monthly climbing coaching service to a small group of motivated clients. Since beginning my online coaching service in 2008, I have coached more than 50 climbers of all ages and ability levels from all around the world. During this time, my knowledge of training methodologies has grown exponentially. Today, I continue to seek out and integrate the latest athletic training research into my own personal training program as well as my clients’ programs.

I believe that almost anybody has the potential to improve his or her climbing ability by using a periodized, individualized climbing training program, no matter how old you are or how long you’ve been climbing (and I am a living example of this). Having a well-orchestrated, scientifically backed program to guide you along this path can be instrumental in achieving this success, as it has been for me since I began my conscientious efforts at weakness-specific training back in early 2008.

Please note that I do NOT teach people how to rock climb, nor do I offer rock climbing safety instruction. Please contact an AMGA-certified guiding service or guide if you’re interested in learning how to rock climb or improving your climbing safety skills.

TOTALCOACHING.COM allows us to work together to achieve your climbing goals, providing an easy and convenient way for you to record and track your climbing days, training workouts, nutritional data and more. Via this powerful online interface, I assign a monthly individualized training plan to each client. This plan includes a day-by-day suggested schedule incorporating climbing-gym training, resistance/weight training, flexibility training, mental training and cardio training elements. Clients check off each workout as its completed, adding details and feedback as well as asking any questions. I review each client’s workouts every week, providing feedback and comments while also responding to any concerns and questions that might arise. Program changes are made on a monthly basis as appropriate.

The cost for this service is $65 per month, plus your pledge to try your hardest to follow the training program you’re assigned. To get started, simply email me to see if space is currently available. I only accept a small number of students at any given time, in order to maximize the attention given to each student’s training for climbing. Interested? Want more information? Please don’t hesitate to contact me to see if I have space and to discuss if online climbing coaching is right for you.
