Francesco Military
Hello! I’m the owner and driving force behind Escalade Performance. Throughout my climbing and fitness journey, I’ve discovered just how rewarding it is to experience progress and achieve the goals I set for myself. That sense of growth has helped me through some of my lowest points. Knowing the power of setting goals, staying consistent, and ultimately reaching them, it’s become one of my greatest joys to help others do the same—whether in general fitness or climbing-specific pursuits.
Background
Francesco was born and raised in Los Angeles, California and began rock climbing in 2015. Shortly after, he took interest in and began studying strength and conditioning and exercise physiology. He moved to Boulder, Colorado to attend the University of Colorado, where he attained a degree in Integrative Physiology. During his time at CU, he began to coach youth rock climbers. He also studied for and passed the CSCS exam to earn his Strength and Conditioning Specialist certification from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). While he isn't attending to his clients at Escalade Performance, he works as a route setter and personal trainer at The Spot Climbing Gym. He also is an active and motivated competitor on the USAC open competition circuit. He also enjoys, biking, baking, making music, and trying to learn french. (emphasis on the trying)
