Skills

Meet Jyoti Raju. This dude is good. I'd like to shake his hand. Maybe his skills would transfer to me. Probably not. We don't need Raju's skills to climb at NOSOTROS. You know why? Because then no one would climb at NOSOTROS.

What You Will Need

To boulder at a gym, you don't even need hands or legs. Those are luxuries. To boulder at a gym, you need one thing. A pulse. Cheesy, yes. True, also yes.

Not.

I will not start with a Webster definition of pulse. Okay. Yes I will.

\ˈpəls\ : the regular expansion of an artery

I had to. Definitions are too cool. There's a reason why every middle school speech begins with one. Nonetheless, anyone can climb.

Conclusion

Building the gym starts soon. Bouldering at the gym comes after. All you need to climb is a palpable beat in your thumb. If you don't have thumbs, don't even let that stop you.

Practical Suggestions

  • If you want to be as Raju-like as possible by the time we launch, here's some ways to prepare

  • Fingertip push-ups

  • Hanging leg-lifts

  • Planks

  • Study monkeys on Youtube

  • Climb at local gyms

  • Climb on local trees
