E13: In this episode we explore why people always seem to trip when running away from zombies... And how this is directly connected to the Olympics and competition climbing. Why do athletes “choke” in a competitive environment? What is "pressure," and how does it affect us? We cover some essential mental skills for preparing athletes for the big event, or for preparing anyone to face the moment that counts.
