I love hearing all the in crowd terms for a niche interest like this. You could've literally made them all up, and I'd still be sitting here, nodding sagely; happy in the knowledge I'm now well informed.
Damn, you're fit though.

I'm pretty sure I've nodded sagely when people discuss terms that I've not heard before. 😆 There are still plenty of moves I don't know yet and have likely never used. There's a group of climbers who warm up on the hardest climbs I do and do all the hardest climbs in the gym. They come in when the new climbs get set and us amateurs sheepishly give them a clear wall and try to figure out exactly what they are yelling at each other on the wall.
Thank you. It's kind of relative isn't it, though? I don't feel very fit when I see what some of the other climbers can do, so I only feel fit in comparison to newcomers. At this age you have to work harder to even stay at the same level. 😆 In the end I do it because I enjoy it, which is what gets you furthest.
I was thinking the exact same thing. I do not have to upper body strength to just hold on like that. It is impressive and amazing. I bet climbers all give great massages.
