efficient, treacherous, optimize - TWW

Marital Ascent

it’s a treacherous climb,
warm up, stretch, flexibility
is more important than strength

preview your route, have a plan,
maintain balance, optimize resources,
find spots to rest

choose your holds carefully, but
don’t hang on too tight or you’ll
soon tire, move efficiently

follow the rules, learn from others,
save your strength, take good care
of your equipment

trust your partner, push yourself
but learn to fall safely, most important,
don’t let go
