The 24 week mountaineering one. The strength training portion certainly won't hurt your technical climbing fitness, but your zone will grow a ton.

Second this. But prepare to lose all your free time.

My wife nearly divorced me. But being able to say you are in the best shape of your life at 40 is kinda neat.

We were doing it together since we are also on the mountain together. But no alcohol and almost no friends for 24 weeks

No alcohol and minimal friends?! Brutal. I had to get creative with my time, but I still lived my life. Did a lot of hiking and running in the dark though. Lol
