Mauro Corona is an alpinist (is that different from rock climbing? Not sure) but I don't know if his work is translated in English. I can't name one book he wrote about "rock climbing" specifically, but it's his thing

He is a "pop" writer, but not the worst one, imho

I started weak as fuck, most of climbing is about body positioning, when you really think about it you’re pushing up with your feet rather than pulling up with your arms if you’re doing it right. I can’t recommend it enough dude, I’m one of the least athletic people I know, and I really latched on to it . Find a gym in your area, try it out for a month I’m sure you’ll meet some cool people, maybe go on a trip.

Gyms are closed here... you know why

On a side note, I'm extremely self conscious about my body.

if you started treating your body right, you'd realize that clothing and "body-image" are a entrapments designed to prevent you from feeling free in that edenic state which is most natural to us

Also ya gotta start somewhere . You’ll be less self conscious if you put in some work . Get a pull-up bar and do some reps , it’ll be tough at first but stick to it .

>> No.17885730

>>17885691

In a sense, I can see how clothes are a societal cage: on the other hand, it's not like I really want to see everyone's dicks and pussies.

Without giving too much details: the other day, I messaged my friend's mom, for valid reasons. I told her positive messages, but it's not like I wanted to see her naked.

>> No.17885877

>>17885720
this, body weight exercises, pull up bar, maybe a single dumbell, and a good diet (which is the most important part of being /fit/) go a long way

naturalism doesn't have to be a public thing, it's also not a sexual thing
you'd be way less self-conscious if you slept, worked out, and walked around your home nude
