22 Rock Climbing Memes to Browse After You Top-Out

Where are all my rockin' rock climbers at?! Are you busy daydreaming about the technicolor holds along a freakishly tall wall and getting your hands chalky after you clock out of work? Same. The rock climbing gym has been whispering my name recently, and it makes it difficult to focus on literally anything else. Rock climbers have this kind of neurological disease where all they can think about are new projects, how to solve a V11 problem their body simply cannot handle, and eating the rest of their CLIF bars with shaky, chalky hands after failing on said problem. There's always next time, friend.

You don't have to be the strongest person on the planet to rock climb—you just need to know how to play foot chess. If you're a new climber, practice makes perfect. And, luckily, you have probably already started to dream about rock climbing… when you're asleep or awake. Let's keep that going, shall we? Scroll below to get a taste of rock climbing while you're trying to fight off your desire to bail out on your "rest" day.

I'm going rock climbing today, which is what prompted me to put together this listicle. The sport has always been a thing, but indoor gym climbing has gotten extremely popular in recent years. There's something about the smell of foam mats and chalky hands, paired with a weird temperature that is a mixture of body heat and air conditioning. Gosh, I love it, though!
