Not really sure where to post this, how long is a piece of string I know. But anyone any idea how many calories you lose per hour of climbing? The 1000+ MFP gives you seems an awful lot.

Thanks.

    Are you climbing a glacier? A slab of granite? A hill on your bike? Your lover?

    It is a really inflated number. I'm not really sure how the came up with that one. I log social gym sessions, casual bouldering, and bouldering for difficulty as gymnastics. If I am doing endurance work or power endurance work, I will log it as MFP's Rock climbing.
