Harsh, One Day hero. And I don't think your comments are particularly astute either.
Core strength is crucial to climbing. There's no point having fingers of steel if they've got a pile of wobbly crud hanging off them. Having strong core muscles means you can get your body to hold the best position, keeping you balanced and supporting the hard work that your fingers and limbs are doing.
As for plastic, I agree with Paulie - I sometime fails to see the advantage of practising at indoor gyms - the holds are greasy and the routes are mostly steep and reachy. It helps for strength but I wouldn't be surprised if it undermines technique. |
