Benefits of Wall Climbing.

Wall climbing sport is at an infant stage in Bangalore. People know about it but are not very well aware of the benefits that they can acquire. Well just to break it down...... one of the most important benefit is the effect on your cardiovascular health. Research has shown that to keep your Cardiovascular system healthy, one must participate in any kind of sport that stresses the heart, resulting in increased heart rate and what better way to have an intense start than wall climbing. This will reduce the chances of diseases like shortness of breath, heart attacks etc. Having said that let us see what are the other advantages of this particular sport- 
  1. Full body workout- You may not believe it but there are very few sports that can actually compete with how strenuous wall climbing is on human body. For a beginner climbing wall just for 3 minutes can be exhausting enough. Therefore practicing this will give you a full body workout, keeping you in shape that you would want. You can forget about running for 5 miles, just climb a wall for 30 minutes daily and see the result.   
  2. Thrilling experience- There is nothing more frightening than hanging on a cliff tied on a rope. This ultimate experience will teach you to conquer your deepest fear and will make you a strong person. It will teach you that when you are determined to do something then you can do it no matter what. It will give you sense of accomplishment when you finally make it to the top of the wall.  
  3. Team Spirit- Wall climbing is a team activity. You will be amazed how you can make friends just by climbing walls. You will have to work in team and make sure that everyone is safe. There will be people guarding you with their life. It's a total team spirit and an experience worth treasuring.
  4. Improves concentration- This helps in improving concentration as while you are up there struggling for your life, all you can think of is "how to make it to the top" and the senses of not giving up. It makes you a survivor. 
  5. Fun Activity- Last but not the least. It is just another fun activity for people who like adventure in life and like the outdoors. Another kind of a weekend getaway with your friends or family. Some even call it a way of relaxing.
