I believe he said in one of his recent videos, or just in a video he was in, that he downsizes his shoes a few sizes less than he used to a few years ago. I can't remember the reason why he said he does it.

Yes, warming up by climbing easy routes is a common and effective way to prepare your body for more challenging climbs. Start with routes below your maximum difficulty level to gradually increase blood flow and warm up your muscles. Focus on smooth movements and proper technique. Adjust the intensity and duration of your warm-up based on how you feel. Prioritize a proper warm-up to reduce the risk of injury and optimize your climbing performance.
