Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
The pros said I need to try harder...
Being told to try harder sounds simple enough, until it means choosing your hardest boulder yet. In "The pros said I need to try harder...", Mike Boyd puts advice from Magnus Midtbø, Dave Macleod and Mat Wright into practice with a V7 at his local gym, Bloc10.
There were no new uploads this week, but that attempt has passed 200,000 views. It also provides a useful next chapter for anyone catching up with "A coaching session with Magnus Midtbø", where Boyd asked the former competition climber to identify improvements within reach. The question has moved from finding those opportunities to testing himself on something harder.
Boyd's own challenge and "Alex Honnold's hardest free solo moves" are attracting almost the same daily viewing, with the older Honnold upload drawing slightly more. Between them, they give this week's catch-up shelf two distinct scales of climbing ambition: a demanding gym problem and the moves of a climber famous for going without a rope.
The channel brought in about 93,000 views over the week, while subscribers stayed unchanged. Daily viewing is currently below its usual pace. Nearby climbing channel The Gravity Lab had a somewhat larger weekly audience; Toby Roberts had a smaller one. For Boyd, the most active uploads remain that Honnold examination and his own attempt to turn coaching into a harder climb.
