I always hated that. I grew up with a big hazelnut bush/tree next to our house, where it was usually more useful to pull yourself up than to try to find good footing.

And then I think, I’ve been climbing my whole life, I’ll visit a climbing gym, and then they’re like, oh no, not that kind of climbing. That would be using muscles, which is famously unpopular in gyms.

Knusper ,

Bro, if you’re gonna mock me, you shouldn’t assume that I actually visited a gym. Obviously, I did not. I was speaking figuratively.

I’ve encountered these rock climbing walls on excursions and such, so I know that I hate them, and I know that climbing gyms are full of them.

All I’m saying is that if they had tree-like climbing opportunities or at least rock-climbing walls with rocks you can actually grip, then that could get me to actually visit a gym.
I’m just disappointed that climbing is the only sport I really enjoy and even the fucking climbing gym still isn’t for me.

Kecessa ,

My dude, you should definitely go visit a climbing gym because you’ve got no idea what you’re talking about if you think they don’t have problems with grips you can hold onto.

Knusper ,

Alright, my guy, thanks for the advice. I don’t know why we’re being so aggressive to each other. I don’t think, there’s that many climbing gyms around here and what I’ve seen of the one we do have, it looked like grips are exclusively for children, but I guess, I should inform myself more.

Stand for 10 minutes.

Now dead hang for 1 min.

Surprise, your legs muscles are much bigger and much more powerful than your arms at defying gravity.

I think the disconnect is, some go to the climbing gym to climb, others go to work out.

Knusper ,

Well, in my particular case, I wouldn’t go for the workout. I just find the rock-type climbing frustrating and relatively boring, while I find the tree-type climbing fun. So, even if I can only manage 1 minute of tree-type climbing at a time, that would be a sport, I’d actually enjoy doing.

Ever been to one of those ninja gyms?

Knusper ,

Never heard of those before, I don’t think. Although, a colleague recently shared pictures of a gym around here, which looks somewhat similar. Yeah, I might have to check out, if they have a more varied climbing offering.

I’ve been to ones that have basically adult jungle gym stuff. I’m in the US and there are a few modeled after American ninja warrior the TV show

Cool gym.

At my gym people ask for tips about watching sports for free online.
