My new gym has a rock climbing wall, is rock climbing actually legit cardio exercise like swimming or erging or is it just for fun basically?
Imagine the handjobs
Bouldering is seriously so fun and just all around great movement
>>77247416bouldering is great because it filters the fatties and powershitters who can’t do a single pullup. top rope too to a lesser degree.
>>77247420Still wouldn't be as good as the ones you give yourself
>>77247416Climbing isn't a catch all replacement for working out.But it's fun and has great body mechanics.Nothing else increases grip and shoulder strength like boldering does.That and it's basically all middle class fit people
>>77247420go be a virgin somewhere else
I've never seen an un-fit rock climbing girl. And she'll be able to give you a proper death grip hand job you gooner
>>77247904>Nothing else increases grip and shoulder strength like boldering doesId say gymnastics is better, rock climbing was very easy for me when I first tried it. But at the same time we did one of those discounted days where we just climb the 2 or 3 beginner walls.
>>77247952>gymnastics can't comment on that front, idk what the Nastic boys do.I just know I beat even the strongest powerlifters in grip strength.
>>77247416 It helos you grow your hands
it's fun but I think we've hit the peak for climbing as a fad and it's just downhill from hereshit got really big during covid with tons of gyms opening up but they're not all doing well
>>77248266I've been wondering about this, how long can this fad last for? I'm sure one day it'll be back to just serious enthusiasts. So have you actually noticed it dying down?
>>77247416Its good for being around white skinny people.
>>77247420mmmh yeah, calluses the size of silver dollars
>>77247416Pros:>extremely fun>great social club>low impact>completely redevelops your back, forearms, and biceps more than any other exercise, also works on your glutesCons:>requires expensive and uncomfortable shoes>higher injury risk from torn calluses and sprains, also threw out my backI've been doing it along with some biking and calisthenics exclusively for a few months and I've never been healthier and more flexible. It's the most fun I've had exercising ever and my only regret is not having picked it up sooner.>>77247952Gymnasts have a good advantage with climbing and modern bouldering techniques were directly inspired by it. There's a lot of overlap.
