If you had $200 to spend on fitness, what would you spend it on? (lemmy.world)

It's a one-time payment. You can spend it on anything fitness or health related.

Edit: I'm not looking for recommendations, I'm curious what YOU would spend it on.

Fresh pair of climbing shoes

Are shoes important for climbing? I did consider paying for a climbing gym session

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Yeah you wear specific shoes and they make different styles of shoes for different types of climbing. I pay for a monthly membership so the 200 could go to that as well ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Eyyy have you seen my woody on my profile? It was $305 so it doesn't qualify for OP's question, but I feel it's in the same spirit. Plus, I always love seeing more of my people in this corner of the internet - hello!

(I need to learn how to make instance-agnostic links)

Talk about risky click of the day lol. That thing is sick! For 300 that is awesome, you got a build process or anything?

Thanks! :D Like a tutorial? So the plywood is screwed to five wooden spines, and the spines attach to perpendicular ceiling joists using joist hangers, simpson ties, and angle iron from an old bed frame. For the holds, you pretty much get a flat surface using a miter saw, drill a hole with a drill press, shape it with the miter, and then sand to comfortize. A router can also help with shaping if you have one. I wish I had a photo album to go with this but I didn't take too many as I went. Anyway, cheers! :)

Yo that’s perfect, I’ve been wanting to put something up in my side yard and I’ll definitely try your build.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Oh snap that'd be awesome! Please let me know if you have questions, I'd be happy to help! I can always pop out and take pictures of anything you're curious about, no problem. Stoked for you! :D
