Made some good progress today, learned to keep my body closer to the wall and stop poking my fat arse out. Fear of heights kicked in when I got over certain heights and was applying chalk to my sweaty palms every couple of feet Good work out on my hands and forearms though http://www.awesomewalls.co.uk/images/Gallery/pic_4.jpghttp://www.awesomewalls.co.uk/images/Gallery/pic_54.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lobsteriffic Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I really want to try indoor rock climbing but I'm such a whimp when it comes to heights, I feel like I would get 2 metres up and start freaking out or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnboy74 Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 I really want to try indoor rock climbing but I'm such a whimp when it comes to heights, I feel like I would get 2 metres up and start freaking out or something. Go for it!!!I'm terrified of heights and that's why i'm going climbing, to overcome the fear. Only been twice, on the smaller walls say 7 metre I feel ok but on the larger walls, 14 metre I get above half way and panic, my palms get sweaty so constantly chalking them. But the satisfaction you get when you reach the top is great and one little step forward to overcoming the fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
