Beginner here but I have been doing that for a few month, I don't know if it's ok or not though. I come from a weight lifting background, so to me it just comes natural to lift weight, it's the climbing part that is new for me, and in order to not be in the gym everyday I have been combining sessions. I haven't found what works best yet though as i... Read more

I haven't gotten there yet, but I have come pretty close to doing one, but I think it was very much my "style" as it was a very physical boulder and I have been weight lifting for a few years and have some strength.

Yes, you can lift weights and boulder on the same day. Start with bouldering and leave weightlifting for later in the day. Allow a few hours between the activities to recover. Warm up before each session and cool down afterward. Listen to your body and adjust the intensity if needed.

I have washed my chalk bag a few times throughout the years, not that it was REALLY needed, but, I personally like to refresh my gear after sometime. Other gear I might buy new, but chalk bags I feel can just live on until they are really in bad shape and ruined, especially because they are not a matter of safety. When it comes to safety or perform... Read more

I would add that it also depends on if it's indoor climbing or outdoor climbing. I don't climb indoors as much as I do outdoors, but usually when we go out we easily have full day sessions, leaving in the morning and getting back at night, sometimes the next morning even. I doubt I would be able to have such long sessions in an indoor gym though... Read more
