I'm trying to build up to being able to go 3 times a week. I'm back to the point where I can climb for 2 hours and not be sore for 3 days afterwards so thats a good sign.
I mainly climb indoors. Theres a few places around me that are quite fun but as I don't have anyone to climb with I need to rely on luck and meet someone there or I just go bouldering.
Its a great alternative to the gym for me. Far more interesting, mentally stimulating and honestly not the same old crap over and over.
