This website is advocating, as well as seeking for, the ways to
achieve it.
Climbing is in one definition a fight against the gravity. Simple.
The law that describes the gravity and kinematics is not a rocket
science, but a straightforward physics, called Classical mechanics,
and any student who has finished the first-year of Physics course in
university should understand it or at least its basics.
It is a zillion-times proved theory since the formulation by the great
Isaac Newton over 300 hundered years ago, and so there is no quetion
left for its validity.
Indeed there is no mystery, or mythical power involved, when a climber
