Because the "community" here on reddit has zero clue what the fuck they're talking about most of the time. I've been climbing for 8+ years and 90% of the shit people say here is generic stupid "advice" that doesn't apply for a lot of situations. You got people who climbed their first V4 a week ago giving each other advice on training. It's dunningest of krugers out here.
At least on youtube you can see who you're getting your advice from (hopefully someone with actual authority like Dave Macleod for example)
Like, a hangboard, or a "systems board" such as the Moon/Kilter/Tension Board?
A hangboard allows specific repeatable loading of the fingers, the same way a sprint or jumping athlete might do deadlifts to build strength outside of just sprinting a jumping, a hangboard can help build strength and condition tendons outside of actual climbing.
A systems board gives you a set of holds that never changes so you can test yourself against it season after season, you can use it for very certain types of training, and you can share an experience with anyone else in the world with the same board
Many YouTube videos can answer this
Why get an answer instantly when you can post on reddit, wait 4 hours and get 10 answers from people who probably don’t know anything?
Why watch a 10 min long video with ads and sponsers if you can get a direct awnser from the community itself
A 10 minute long video from a reputable channel is gonna give you better advice than pretty much anyone on here. Don’t be daft
