Training the mind and the body is the key to successful climbing. While women are said to have less confidence than men when lead climbing, it’s safe to say that there are a whole lot of women for whom confidence is no barrier and who are smashing out high grade climbs and pushing boundaries across climbing disciplines (think Shauna Coxsey, Lucy Creamer, Ashima Shiraishi).
