Climbing is one of those hobbies that you  will get addicted to pretty fast!

Not only is it so much fun, it’s also some of the best full body exercise a woman can get – from building great upper body strength to developing an awesome core.

There’s a range of different types of climbing you can learn and practice, including outdoor trad and sport climbing to indoor climbing with a harness.

For someone wanting to try out the sport however, indoor bouldering (free climbing up shorter walls) is a great place to start.

We visited The Arch Climbing Wall in Bermondsey, London to get the lowdown on everything you need to know to give bouldering a bash.
