Please start climbing.. I started like a month ago and it’s now it’s a sizeable chunk of what I think about every day. It’s an addiction and feels like a fun little game😺Also if you have no upper body strength it’s a nice way to get (somewhat) stronger—more obviously if you pursue it seriously.

If any of you do climbing at all and have never gone outside, give it a try. I went today and could barely complete beginner level climbs, safe to say I am motivated to get back into training so I can become a beast on the boulders

apologies for sincereposting but i gotta plug my favorite sport of all time. as someone who grew up playing a LOT of team sports, discovering climbing was incredible. they got it figured it out. its gamified for you, every climbing route has a little number assigned to tell you roughly how difficult it is, making it very easy for you to evaluate how well you're improving.
despite common perception, it is not an sport solely for people with lots of upper body strength, modern bouldering and sport climbing typically requires a level of full body fitness and mobility that isn't easily replicated by many sports. you can always find a niche with your morphology to make it work. its great for your back too.

It feels so cringey to talk about as a hobby but it is so fun and gets you in such good shape
