Indoor rock climbing

Anybody do any indoor rock climbing as a form of workout?   I was invited by my Brother in law, his wife and nephew and niece a week ago and really enjoyed the challenge.

One if activities I'd love to try expect no time for it.

I've only done it once.  It was fun, but I was in much better shape at the time and much of the reason I enjoyed it is because I did very well.  Today I'd probably be like my friend, he got a few feet up and spent the next hour+ recovering 😂

@superhawk996 yeah the last time I climbed was in my 20's when I was about 30 lbs lighter, I definitely need to remember to use my legs as much as possible, the arms go first and then you are just stranded, time to belay down.
