Tree Climbing Practice

This is a training method used to gain the basic skills of chakra control. This training involves focusing a fixed amount of chakra to the bottom of one's feet, and using that to climb a tree without using one's hands. If the stream of chakra is too weak, the user will lose their footing on the tree and fall off. If it is too strong, the bark of the tree will break and the user will fall. Kakashi was shown demonstrating his team this during the Land of Waves arc.
