Climbing gyms get you strong incredibly fast. Borderline V4 in 2 weeks is absolutely ridiculous.

The gym allows you to pound V3, V3, V3, V4 V4...one after the other, one grade to the next. Humans aren't (generally) built for that. You are going too fast.

Climbing to attain higher and higher numbers is fine, but there is more depth to this game than that.

Go climbing outside. Enjoy yourself. Look for problems that look fun. Don't stress about the numbers.

Climbing outside will round out your experience, and provide depth to your movement over stone that transcends the pure numeric difficulty. Your career will be longer and more enjoyable if you start traveling to other climbing areas.

Besides, everybody knows that 5.11d is considerably harder than 5.12a Cool
