Kyle McFarland began White Pine Athletics out of frustration in the templative way that trainers were approaching their athletes. He believes that everyone is unique and his training plans need to reflect that in the way he approaches his clients. Kyle grew up climbing and competing in youth competitions. As he began to age out of the youth competitions, he took on coaching and routesetting. As his passion for helping athletes succeed grew, Kyle decided to persue it further. He studied kinesiology and became an American College of Sports Medicine certified personal trainer as well as a level 3 cycling coach.
The philosophy of White Pine Athletics is to focus on each individual as a completely different case than the last with differing needs, goals, recovery times, and strengths. His unique approach to climbing training offers a fresh, indepth, and clinical look into what’s missing in the realm of climbing training, and hopefully what we can do to move the sport and it’s athletes forward.
