The Simple-X Test
A free test designed to isolate, identify and provide you with data that will help you better understand your strengths & weaknesses so you can train smarter and ultimately climb harder!
The Simple-X test was developed to help collect data on a wide range of climbers from around the world, compare their results to see their strengths & weaknesses and how those contribute to their climbing successes. As more climbers complete the test, you’ll be able see how your results compare to other climbers within the same grade range as you, as well as climber in the next grade range. This can help you tailor your training to improve your weaknesses and ultimately, climb stronger!
The Simple-X test is based on 7 pillars that all play keys roles in our climbing – Finger Strength, Body Tension & Core Strength, Shoulder Stability, Pulling Power, Leg Strength & Stability, Flexibility & Cardio. Take the test now and see how you rate against other climbers!
