 Rock Warriors: Mental Training for Climbers, has become, since its publication in 2005, a reference work among climbers, who have appreciated its valuable contributions. After putting the material from that book into practice at his Desdiderata Insitute school, Arno Ilgner now brings us in Express Lessons a compendium of his teachings, with a very practical approach. This book is Warriors of the Rock's "how-to" book, designed to develop and complement it.

 Mental training consists of improving the ability to maintain attention in the moment. One of the most difficult - and interesting - situations in rock climbing is when the mind doubts whether to continue climbing or not. Knowing when it is appropriate to force and overcome those doubts and when to withdraw is essential to face the appropriate risks for each one.
 Express Lessons helps you face your own challenges. It is an intentional approach to risk-taking, which includes very specific processes for gathering information, analyzing risk, making decisions, and executing effective measures.

 Many climbers do not know or avoid falling. Express Lessons addresses this issue through intentional practice of falls. It also includes specific exercises to practice all phases of risk taking, allowing you to internalize the Rock Warriors message in a practical and tangible way.
