You'd be surprised. With proper climbing technique, you use legs more than arms. :)

ive done the wall in the ARC at SDSU. its only 50 ft, but its a helluva workout.
the first time i climbed it my forearms were so sore, i could hardly hold anything. then as i continued to climb, i learned to use my legs, and that made it a more balanced workout.
i like the comfort of having a belayer supporting me.
yep, the wall at the ARC is pretty fun and will turn your arms into mush pretty quick the first couple times.
The better technique the less strength is necessary. That's why you see a lot of chicks moving up the wall so effortlessly.
We should all hit up Vertical Hold sometime next week. I've never been and have been wanting to check it out. I know Josh is down, any other takers?

I'm down! I used to be a little tree climbing monkey, then I started smoking :cry:
But I quit smoking and haven't smoked since Jan. 1st '05 so maybe I'll make it a fourth of the way up that wall........maybe. :lift:

ok ok... next time, if i get invited lol, i'll go... lets see how my old a$$ can hold on to the dayam rock...
At my old job I used to climb trees for trimming/maintenance reasons. But now my job consists of standing around all day. I need to go climbing, I need the exercise bad.
