“You’ve probably experienced overthinking when climbing at some point. By analysing and evaluating the signals you’re receiving from your body, the chances are that the route will feel harder than you expected. This is rarely of any benefit, so you should concentrate on external factors. Look at footholds to position your foot precisely, and concentrate on tasks such as flow and efficiency so you don’t get too pumped too soon.” — Martin Mobråten
