Damn, guys that's some awesome dedication. Two weeks straight is a lot but I bet it helped a ton for muscle memory learning. Plus, $40 a person for two weeks for all of those amenities is a screaming deal. This video was so well shot and edited! You guys deserve way more views!
Very fun to watch you guys pick up climbing! I’m all about mastery so I totally get what you mean by wanting to expedite the learning curve and be good at climbing - which is why I do a lot of climbing drills. That was a lot of progress for two weeks! The fact that your skin and muscles allowed to to climb every day for that long is a feat in itself.
Wow!! You guys did so great! Maybe you aren’t totally happy with your technique, I wouldn’t know you guys looked good to me, but you had fun jumped into something new. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You should follow Dogcatmanvan. They're currently in indiana building Ben's 2nd van, but will end up out west. He & Julie are huge rock climbers, they're hilariously funny and u guys would totally vibe.
Yes! This is awesome! My partner and I just got into rock climbing last year and absolutely love it. I realized a while ago that to stay engaged with fitness, I needed more than just a workout video and something that felt more like play. Rock climbing was perfect!
This was a fun video to watch! I recently got myself into rock climbing like 2 months ago and I focused a lot on getting the technique right, and that was the best decision.. I am very happy with my progress at climbing and I enjoy it a lot since it’s very dynamic and the climbing community itself is very welcoming.. Most of the people in climbing are super friendly and helpful.. I hope you guys keep climbing 🤘🏻
Do they not have routes with the belay or auto belay? Kind of helps if you aren’t worried about dying. And don’t forget to practice climbing back down. 😂
They did! We only tried them for a little bit while we were getting the instructions but it was mostly a bouldering gym. We’ll have to try out a rope gym next time 🤙🏼
I love bouldering and lead climbing. You want to use your legs as much as you can. And keep your arms straight. So you don’t burn out your biceps. I’ve learned the hard way. Great job by the way.
That seems like a fun way to leap out of your comfort zone to do something new. Im scared of heights real bad so this a climbing gym might be a good way to face that.
Yeah it was a ton of fun! Climbing in a gym is definitely a solid way to get over the fear of heights! Great exercise, a mental puzzle, and soft landings 🤙🏼
This content, as well as the many adventures that lie ahead of you two, is fun to watch! It's fulfilling for those of us who can't _____ yet- - or can't anymore! Keep those hips in!

Thanks Amber!! We really appreciate it! We LOVED our time there but 2 weeks was too much lol and it was such a steal! We took full advantage

Thanks for watching! We can’t wait to keep improving our skills. Some of Matt’s bloody fingers didn’t end up making the final cut!
Love you guys and keep climbing.
Thank you Evelyn!! We loved it so much, we probably will keep going!
Can definitely see more form at the end! As far as abs i think my keg smokes a 6pack anyday 😂 have fun guys
Lol your 6 pack is just insulated 😂

Nice! Heres for the algorithm
Thank you!!!
So proud of us for taking this on. 2 weeks is a lot of climbing!
Me too!!
I think you did great especially for how short you are! Matt got the reach but you have the finesse! Good job guys
@@incrediblemack8745 Meg definitely has the finesse
You guys did amazing!
Thank you Mo and Jen! Appreciate it
If you get back to Southern AZ, you need to check out Cochise Stronghold for bouldering and rock climbing.
Oh sweet!! Thanks for the recommendation. There’s a ton we didn’t end up doing in southern AZ I’m sure we’ll be back
hahah 15 we are hitting puberty!!! Good work ! Stoked to get you in Utah climbing with us.
Thanks! It all started with you two! We’ll never forget that
Wow!! You guys did so great! Maybe you aren’t totally happy with your technique, I wouldn’t know you guys looked good to me, but you had fun jumped into something new. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ay thank you! We can’t wait to keep improving our skills!!
Fun video, y’all! There’s such an overlap in the climbing community and vanlifers, I’m sure you’ll find tons more cool opportunities (:
Huge overlap! That’s how we got introduced to it. We can’t wait to try more stuff!
Well done guys that was fun to watch.
Thanks Paul! This is one of our favorite videos we’ve made so far

Sounds like our vibe’ we will check out their RUclips channel, heard about it a few times. Thanks for the recommendation Christina!

Heck yeah!!! I couldn’t agree with that more!!

Yes! Technique was the biggest thing with us. Glad you’re loving climbing too! We definitely want to keep doing it
So glad you took that class, there is a lot of technique in climbing and makes the experience so different 👌
We’re glad we took it too! We have so much to improve upon 🤙🏼

@@Meghanandmatt And the video is fun. Not opposed to adding these to the lineup!

Thanks Michael! I definitely learned the hard way too that my arms can’t do it all and I have to get the legs more into it 🤙🏼

As much fun as this was to watch, I personally, would find no satisfaction in climbing rocks 🪨 I need a nap just from watching 😁
Hahaha as long as you’re entertained watching, that’s what we’re here for! Definitely not for everyone
Loved this! Would love to see more of climbing videos and your progression
Thank you! We definitely want to keep climbing

Thank you!! We are pumped you’re excited about it because this is giving us so much life on the road right now! Yeah we gotta work on the hips!
