Any combination of the above 4 will help.
Climbing can be tough and climbing well is a skill- practice helps.
not believing everything I read for starters.
definitely see losing 30 lbs will make a difference- yes.
will working on leg muscles and core.
Stand to climb- on shorter climbs. I read you burn more energy standing but will try that.

Thank you for the tips
