l enjoy doing it in the middle of the mall, but if it is a good source of alot of exercise, i'd like to pursue it as a sport/hobby. so...will it ''build muscle and burn fat''?

yes any thing that requires any use of your muscles is good excerzie as long if u do it for a good amount of time

It is good exercise as you build strength and use many muscles in your body to hold body position - surprisingly it is very good for ''core'' muscles for that very reason.

You can also climb laps - same climb several times in a row for more aerobic exercise and ''down climb'' when you get to the top for more burn in your muscles.

Good Luck

Yes Climbing is a great excersize and on top of that, it is fun, however if you continue to enjoy it than l would suggest actually climbing a mountain.

Like any exercise it is extreemly benifical (provided you do it safely). If your loving fooling around in the middle of the mall where you could get hurt or in trouble, I'd highly recommend visiting a climbing gym were you can see what it is like. Most gyms will offer introduction classes as you need some basic skills (tying in and belaying). Go for it, and have fun!

Any sport are buld muscle and burn fat. It is depend you apply tha exercise program. Wall climbing is good exercise but you have to increase a difficulty, pursuit outdoor is to accept a challenges and get over it.
