I’m really struggling to gain upper body strength for climbing, even by lifting weights for 10-20 minutes every day and upping protein intake. Anyone got tips for building strength quickly? Do I want more reps or more weight? Is there something in my diet I should make sure I cut or include?

how long you been climbing? if not so long, then climbing more is the best thing you can do + a small amount of finger boarding. If at least a year then maybe consider getting a plan from https://latticetraining.com. Really detailed personalised plans. So stoked to see the climbing maxis on FC!

Nearly a year, usually bouldering on Saturdays and Sundays (i.e. twice a week, back-to-back). Never done fingerboards so looking at rock rings because I think they’d be best for my rented apartment. Will also check out Lattice - thanks!
