In this article it
talks about how good rock climbing can be to help you lose weight and tone your
body. It says that rock climbing at a gym or outside for 30 minutes or more you
can burn more than 400 calories and it builds up practically every major muscle
in your body since you use both your legs and upper body. It also says that
like other activities that build up cardio like running and swimming, rock
climbing is a great way to build up your cardio and stamina.
This
article I found was good and descriptive of how rock climbing can help and it
talks about how it can help anyone fit or not, he displays this by giving a
section for losing weight by rock climbing and then a second section for
already fit people who can use this to tone their body and muscles. I also
liked this article because it gave great examples of how doing this can help
you and also used a lot of interesting statistics from reliable sources such as
only 30 minutes a day of rock climbing is the optimal amount to maintain a good
cardio. I thought that overall this article was straightforward and I learned
that rock climbing is not only fun but also a good exercise, which I did not
know before. I would recommend this article to anyone wanting to advance on
their cardio or muscles, or just lose weight.
