The Face Behind Face The Climb

Your Coach:
Jen Chmiel, M.S., C.S.C.S.

Lifting is a lifelong journey. I began mine back in my junior/senior year of high school and little did I know back then, it would change my life for the better and direction. It is never too late to start lifting and I believe that every single person should be doing it. My hope is to inspire you to start lifting and have success not only in lifting but every aspect of your life. There is no such thing as too big of a dream: self-belief, grit, confidence, self-trust, commitment, and discipline can help you get there, all of which you learn from lifting. Getting outside your comfort zone is where really living happens and no one should be playing it small. It’s about enhancing your performance/fitness AND your life.

What Others Are Saying About Face The Climb

  • “Hey Jen! Just wanted to update you on my latest SENDcation! Just got home from Viñales and can't tell you enough how much the endurance training helped. The rock in Cuba is extremely featured and 3 dimensional. My endurance allowed me to chill and think my way through climbing and lead to GREAT SUCCESS! I sent my hardest route ever, a 12c and multiple other hard 11s and 12s! Stoked to start my next training plan to see what I can accomplish this upcoming Spring rock season!” - John W.

  • “I gained overall physical strength, but especially in my back. I think the structured exercises also helped me improve my patience and mindset. I gained about 2 grades on ropes and 1 grade bouldering, but definitely feel more confident trying harder projects now so I think I will see more progress in the near future as well.” - Alison H

  • "Jen's coaching from Face the Climb has not only gotten me stronger and better at climbing, but she has also helped me celebrate the “little wins” while letting go of self-limiting beliefs. Through each step of Face the Climb, I felt supported, inspired, and motivated. From mindset to strength and technique, I noticed myself easing up on comparing myself to others, becoming more present, slowly learning to trust my body (despite a spinal condition and fusions), and shifting from static to efficient dynamic climbing ... My footwork has become more precise; I now understand the link between footwork and the technique needed to execute a climb progressing from a 5.8 gym climber to a 5.10 climber loving the outdoors.” - Melanie H.
