Want to get started with rock climbing but have no idea where to begin? This is the book for you! From the equipment to the body positioning and mindset, we'll cover it all.

Regardless of your gender, age or experience you're going to learn everything you need to know to get started rock climbing.

Power is required for explosive movements, balance is required to traverse or move up a rock face, endurance is required to keep you going on long climbs, and a stable core is required to help you climb better and more efficiently. Climbing, whether at the gym or at the crag, is the greatest way to prepare for rock climbing. Many people are focusing on isolating themselves at home for a few weeks as the coronavirus sweeps the country. Due to congestion, most climbing and fitness gyms have closed, and crag climbing is not encouraged.
