    • I'm a beginner and no, that thought didn't even cross my mind. It seems silly to be fixated on height when I specifically chose to do low-height climbing (bouldering) instead of greater-height climbing (roped). I also didn't do any of the other things that Magnus did in an attempt to appear beginnerish, such as not sticking to the colour of the climb (how hard can understanding colour-coding be lol), using the descent holds (i.e. those grey ones you're only supposed to use while descending) while climbing up, pant so much (or at all), etc. I think all of those things might be stereotypes that advanced climbers have of beginners that don't actually hold true in reality.

He is not a beginner, but rather he is someone who just found out rock climbing is different from jumping a fence. Your starting point is different than Bjorn's. You did research and know about the color coding. Bjorn only knew that if he climbs whatever a V4 is he beats his coworker.

    • Hi there, you can definitely start climbing, irrespective of BMI. I have a guide here, and it says that it is safe (low injury rare) to climb 4a-c when your bmi is 27. So when you start climbing when your bmi is even higher, you can definitely start on 2s or 3s with low injury rate. And my experience is that when you start climbing, you will start gaining muscle really fast, which helps A LOT with fat burning. So..... You should definitely try climbing! You can probably pair up with someone your level at the gym. Climbing people tend to be the quite relaxed go with the flow type. And encourage eachother.

Her excitement was subtle but grew more as she became more impressed and fully invested as he kept proving himself taleted. Awesome stuff! Another person achieving cool & fun things their first shot at it (even if it's only a lie) is always exciting to be a part of, even if it's a small part.

We have both struggled with depression and anxiety, and her with ptsd, and climbing is such a life changing activety. We can play, have fun, challenge ourselves, get a great workout, and after our climbing sessions we go home to eat together and watch videos of yours, and videos of people we've found through your videos. Wanted to thank you in person last time I saw you at Skullerud but I would feel too rude to interrupt and bother you😅 Just, thank you so much, your videos have truly been so important to us.
