What to wear: Indoor rock climbing

Obviously, there's a big difference between clothing you'd need for indoor versus outdoor rock climbing. Either one is a fantastic workout, but they each have their own advantages, as Bev told us all about earlier. However, I'm much more familiar with climbing indoors, and I know that it's an accessible, easy way for people to get started, so for the purposes of this post, I'll be focusing on indoor climbing.

In case you're afraid to try climbing because you don't think you have enough upper body strength, let me reassure you -- it doesn't matter. You use your legs and core right along with your arms, so it's not like you're constantly hanging by one arm, like in the movies. There are lots of different levels of climbing, and if you're willing to give it a try, I'm sure you can reach the top of a beginner wall, at least. And it's totally safe -- you'll wear a harness and be roped in, so even if you fall, you won't go anywhere.

That being said, here are some tips on what to wear for your new indoor adventure:
