All the ways Rock Walls help you climb to the top

Rock climbing is so much more than just climbing on some rocks.  It is a great mental workout just as much as it is physical.  Here are some of the biggest ways rock climbing aids you in living a healthy life.
  • Building muscle and endurance is a guarantee when rock climbing.  It requires a lot of force to raise your body up into the air.  Rock climbing allows the climbers to gain muscle and cardio strength in a fun way, while also helping with flexibility and body movement.
  • Because you must search for the best hold and control you weight placement, rock climbing will boost brain function as well.  The entire time you are on the wall, your brain is working as hard as your body to keep you stuck to the rocks.  Additionally, because of the mental workout aspect from climbing, most people see reduction in stress levels as well.


Climbing is a great way to learn how to overcome difficult challenges and develop valuable life skills.  Rock climbing will teach you about your own strengths and weakness all while making you more fit.  If you would like to try this incredible workout for yourself or want to learn more, contact the Rec Center or come see us in house and stare down your next 44’ tall obstacle.
