Albert Ok was once a talented 110m hurdler, a nationally-ranked Guitar Hero player and a chess coach. Fascinated by the minutiae of movement after discovering climbing, he made YouTube videos analysing World Cup beta, earning him millions of views and the moniker 'Professor Ok'. Next, he became a nationally-ranked speed climber. Albert's talent for problem solving and teaching—and a willingness to think outside the box and go the extra mile, experimenting with AI, mathematics and learning Persian—led to his work as a speed coach. Today, Houston-based Albert independently coaches a growing team of 50 speed climbers around the world both in person and remotely, including two Olympic-qualified athletes and the current men's world record holder.
"I have a pipe dream of going to a sprinting-specific country like Jamaica and taking the "B" team sprinters and making them into the best speed climbers in the world."
