Benefits of Climbing

Climbing boosts brain function. Moving up on a wall or maneuvering on a climbing board often demands body awareness and problem solving because the way up is not often direct as we might assume.

It takes focus and coordination among brain and muscle to grab right hold and where exactly to place.

As per Alex Johnson(a pro climber with the North Face), it is reported that climbing helps people with ‘dyspraxia’ (a development coordination disorder) to make improvements on their body movements.

Time spent in adventure sports, helps building confidence, develops fearless attitude and makes us tough to deal with failures.

You might not succeed to climb a wall or boulder problem in a single attempt but consistent efforts and more time to strength/endurance training makes you climb foot.

Climbing exercises helps you overcome mental illness, self esteem gets boosted, anxiety and depression can be alleviated.

People in addiction recovery can also be benefitted through a proper devised climbing exercise routine.
