Zach Galla does the Sound of Violence (8C)
What did you mean on Instagram reporting the ascent saying, “Kicked off my training deload/soul climbing”?
I’ve recently been on a heavy comp training grind in preparation for the pan american championship coming up later this month and decided to lower my training volume and enjoy some rock climbing for a week before locking myself back in the gym. The body and mind are now reset and I’m stoked for the Pan ams!
In 2020, Zach was runner-up in Pan-Am Championship after Colin Duffy, where he was beaten by one try to the zone on one boulder. The winner of the Panamerican Championship 2023 will get an Olympic ticket to Paris.
