> I’m not a huge fan of rock climbing. I don’t think it’s boring, but indoors, most often they make it challenging by making the girls tiny and I don’t really enjoy having an inch long thing I can barely get the first joint of my knuckle on, and maneuver my body to try to find steps and stuff to get to the top. Rock climbing is either too easy, or too hard for me, and the sweet spot is not common enough to make it worth it. Haven’t climbed outdoors per say, but I’ve climbed small like 10-20 foot stuff and blundered before and enjoy that

> Lifting weights is the real boring shit. You just stand in one place and do repetitive movements, theres a bunch of cock measuring and its dependent on form and what machines you have. Rock climbing, youre moving, going places, you see different sights, if you rock climb in nature (I live in a city with greenbelts and people can rappel and rock climb in some of them) you get to see cool views, and you dont necessarily need machines or equipment, you can just go and do it.

> As far a sports go it's a far different animal than most. Weight training, jogging, etc are mostly just the discipline to do extremely repetitive tasks.

A lot of outdoor sports eg; trail running, mountain biking, skiing, skateboarding, etc are more like rapid decision making over and over, which is a totally different kind of challenge.

> As you said, rock climbing outside is the most satisfying and interesting sport I have tried. Especially for me who live in an island. We use to find spots where you can free climb ( without ropes) and if you fall you go straight into the water. But in order to get good you have to do some training inside too. But still I find it less boring than casual gym training. Ofcourse it's boring to watch, unless you see someone like Adam Ondra behaving like Spiderman. Or Alex Honnold free climbing vertical mountain walls.

Good job.", ">\n\nr/woooosh", ">\n\nNo, I get your point, but you've missed mine. It's not like you negated OP's opinion. They still have that opinion even though the same can be said of lifting weights. They're both valid opinions, but OP's is probably the more unpopular one.", ">\n\nI’m not a huge fan of rock climbing. I don’t think it’s boring, but indoors, most often they make it challenging by making the girls tiny and I don’t really enjoy having an inch long thing I can barely get the first joint of my knuckle on, and maneuver my body to try to find steps and stuff to get to the top. \nRock climbing is either too easy, or too hard for me, and the sweet spot is not common enough to make it worth it. \nHaven’t climbed outdoors per say, but I’ve climbed small like 10-20 foot stuff and blundered before and enjoy that", ">\n\nWhat and where have you tried climbing?", ">\n\nI appreciate this opinion, because I think the opposite where I like the challenge of climbing, and hate weight lifting.", ">\n\nI thought the same until a friend took me and now I love it. You don’t just climb up, you have to solve the route. It’s a physical and a mental challenge that works out your whole body. \nI lift weights as well but there is no way climbing is more boring than lifting", ">\n\ni love climbing. it’s a puzzle you solve by doing exercise. fun with friends. slightly dangerous. \nweights are super boring", ">\n\nYea came on to say this. I hate going to the gym. When I workout I get super bored quickly even with a podcast or something on. \nI only recently started rock climbing and I love it. Rock climbing engages my brain to solve a situation basically tricking me into exercise.", ">\n\nLifting weights is the real boring shit. You just stand in one place and do repetitive movements, theres a bunch of cock measuring and its dependent on form and what machines you have. \nRock climbing, youre moving, going places, you see different sights, if you rock climb in nature (I live in a city with greenbelts and people can rappel and rock climb in some of them) you get to see cool views, and you dont necessarily need machines or equipment, you can just go and do it.", ">\n\nI used to climb a ton, always hated the gear junkies and common language used. It gets good when you are solid enough to go outside and climb big places on your own with your own gear. Lots of hard days to get there, but there’s nothing like it IMO.", ">\n\nI got tired of traumatizing myself.", ">\n\nThe pulley situation that they have going on makes it fun tho. I’ve never rock climbed outdoors or with someone holding my end of the rope, so no comments there.", ">\n\nWhat grade were you climbing when you went?", ">\n\nAs far a sports go it's a far different animal than most. Weight training, jogging, etc are mostly just the discipline to do extremely repetitive tasks. Which mentally can be extremely challenging and rewarding. A lot of outdoor sports eg; trail running, mountain biking, skiing, skateboarding, etc are more like rapid decision making over and over, which is a totally different kind of challenge. Rock climbing is like solving a really hard puzzle with your whole body. If you can't get it right the first time, you have to have the persistent mindset to just keep trying with tiny adjustments. I think the trap most new climbers fall into is not seeing the appeal of the stubbornness of not giving up on a problem until it's solved, no matter how exhausted you may be.", ">\n\nLifting weights is boring to me. You repeatedly lift a heavy thing then put it down. I'll take the rock climbing.", ">\n\nAs you said, rock climbing outside is the most satisfying and interesting sport I have tried. Especially for me who live in an island. We use to find spots where you can free climb ( without ropes) and if you fall you go straight into the water. \nBut in order to get good you have to do some training inside too. But still I find it less boring than casual gym training.\nOfcourse it's boring to watch, unless you see someone like Adam Ondra behaving like Spiderman. Or Alex Honnold free climbing vertical mountain walls.", ">\n\nIt doesn't seem that fun. I think a lot of the enjoyment might come from the workout/challenge. The activity in itself seems pretty slow paced and boring so I do agree. Rock climbing outside probably feels way more adventurous though.", ">\n\nHave you actually tried it?", ">\n\nNow that I think about it, I did in high school a couple times. Idk. I'm not saying it's totally boring but it really wasn't that exciting either.", ">\n\nIf you're not wearing climbing shoes or using chalk, it's kind of miserable, and if you're doing the lowest or second lowest grade in the typical gym, it's really not that interesting. It's once you get to around the third level of difficulty (my gym calls is V2-V4) it gets a lot more interesting because the lowest level is essentially just ladder, which is not at all fun. But it's not fun in a riding a sled kind of way, it's more like beating a challenging platforming section of a video game fun. I mean, I don't really even consider my experience fun. It's more like satisfying. It's satisfying to hit a certain move. But it was fun at first. I've been climbing for a long ass time though. Having a session outside with a bunch of people all working on the same project is fun, until your girlfriend of ten years leaves you and marries one of those people. That's not fun.", ">\n\n\nI don't really even consider my experience fun", ">\n\nCongrats. You just proved that something you've done thousands of times isn't as fun as when you first started.", ">\n\n*riding motorcycles enters the chat*" ]

By any reasonable modern standard, he's a conservative Democrat, not a Republican. \nThis is also why he stands absolutely zero chance at becoming the Republican nominee.", ">\n\nThe \"personally opposes abortion but still supportive of other people's ability to get one\" tidbit tells me immediately that he at least has some level of genuine integrity, even if it isn't much. \nThe respectable thing to do for any person who doesn't personally support an issue like abortion is to say \"I might not like it, but that doesn't mean people who need it should be discriminated against, or targeted with violence. I do not support forcibly imposing my personal views on the entire populace.\"", ">\n\nHe and the Massachusetts governor vetoed pro-choice bills", ">\n\nAh damn, they got me there. That completely negates their supposed minimal integrity.", ">\n\nFor sure Larry Hogan won't be the GOP nominee. And Trump's chances go up when moderate lightweights like him join the race.

The GOP is falling into the same trap that handed Trump the nomination in 2016.", ">\n\nTrap? Or plan? Hmm...", ">\n\nHe would fare better in the general, but he has zero chance of making it out of the primary.

Not radical enough.\n( and still too Republican to get my vote)", ">\n\nDude announced that he wrote in Ronald Reagan for president.
