Okay so I went rock climbing (at a rock climbing gym ) today and burned about 400 cals, then I went right to the gym for an hour (didn't work real hard since I was tired from climbing) and burn another 400 cals! So total cals burned...800!!! That may not seem like a lot to some people, but I started two months ago with NO activitiy at all. Normally I burn about 300 or less a day. So I'm excited! Thanks for listening!

    Welcome to my favorite addiction, I mean, sport...

    I'm new to this site, but figured I'd find a few climbers or aspiring climbers on here. I've been at it avidly for about 3.5 years. In that time, I've lost weight, gotten STRONG and learned a ton about myself. If you've always wanted to try rock climbing but haven't, go try it (preferably in a good, safe gym or with other qualified instruction, of course).

    If you'd like to read about my climbing life, I blog at http://www.rockclimbergirl.com.
