Apr 23, 2008 4:53 AM GMTYup, it's definitely a sport, though rare these days. A former client of mine was a professional competitive rope climber. He is now in his 70's. -

Jul 13, 2008 9:51 PM GMTI love rope-climbing, and I wish I could find a gym or someplace around here where I could do it !! -
Jul 13, 2008 10:16 PM GMTUgh! I HATED that in junior high... couldn't do it.
But, one of my friends has a climbing rope secured to the main beam in his great room. He can climb up to the bedroom, instead of taking the stairs. Seems a little extreme... I might hang one from a tree on my fitness trail, if I can get over the JH phobia.
