Off the Wall Exercises for Climbers

Training the body off the wall can lead to improvements on the wall. By strengthening and stretching the muscles of the body, conditioning the heart and lungs, and improving mind focus and concentration, climbing can be all that you want it to be and more. The feeling of accomplishment when reaching the top of a climb can be yours every climb. The control over the body that it takes to overcome challenges while climbing lead to improved self-esteem. The feeling of control of the body and improved power can be enhanced through a workout regimen that includes strength, flexibility and cardiovascular exercise.Wolfe, Lisa M. is the author of 'Off the Wall Exercises for Climbers', published 2005 under ISBN 9781930546745 and ISBN 1930546742.
