It has not only been 1 single person. I already said i have watched many people climb.. i can tell you for fact, this guy got to the top purely from his weightlifting background.

I know what ''power'' a route looks like when i see it. All the other new climbers that i have seen climb who had no lifting background would not have done that route. I climbed the route myself and it was 4 arm intence.. he clearly had good solid 4 arms (although i would guess not much endurance).. but why did he need it when he was finished befor that problem arised?.

I took a group of friends outdoor climbing (all three of them was new at the time.. and havent climbed since at that). I am not making this up.. but 2 of my m8's had no lifting background.. 1 did. The 1 who did, done the best out of the 3, by far. I can still remember the other 2 stopig at the main restpoint crying about their 4 arms then giving up.

Over the past few year i really thought climbing ONLY was the best option to get better.. but i think i have seen enough now to know it is not. Atleast for me.
