Indoor Rock Climbing with Freedom Climber

Freedom Climber has posted an instructional video for their indoor interactive climbing wall.

The Freedom Climber is an indoor interactive wall designed to simulate the experience of rock climbing. It has a rotating climbing surface that is constantly changing, which provides climbers with a variety of benefits that they would not get in regular outdoor climbing. The wall works their muscles and joints in rotational movements, which means that they get a workout that they would not get in conventional climbing and reap additional physiological benefits from using the Freedom Climber. Even experienced climbers can test their endurance and skills.

Both indoor and outdoor climbing requires climbers to use their stabilizing muscles and is an activity that will work their core muscles. With the Freedom Climber, there is also a significant improvement in cardiovascular performance, hand-eye coordination, flexibility, grip strength, dexterity, and stamina. Climbers can get their heart rate up within seconds and they get a workout that tones and strengthens their whole body within weeks.

The Freedom Climber is suitable for kids, and it provides them with a safe, challenging, exciting climbing experience. It can be used in gyms and fitness centres, YMCAs, children's play zones, in offices, and at home. A parent and a child can climb the interactive wall at the same time; one going up and the other down. The climber is always kept in the same location, at a safe distance from the floor, because the surface always rotates down as the climber attempts to go up. This is particularly convenient for school gyms and children's play zones, as the Freedom Climber does not require constant supervision and is safer to use than many other indoor climbing walls. The surface of the wall is made of recycled rubber which is durable and easy to clean and maintain.

The Freedom Climber can be used as one of the exercise stations in circuit training in physical education classes, as it provides children with a fun activity and motivates them to fully participate. Kids can get a full body workout while competing against their friends and challenging themselves physically in an activity they do not normally get to engage in at school. The wall also makes an excellent team building activity as it requires controlled and coordinated movements of both climbers.

The surface of the wall can rotate clockwise or anti-clockwise and the climbers' movements cause the rotation. The wall's rotation speed is held constant and can be adjusted to suit the climber, from a slow, easy climb for beginners to a fast, challenging climb for users who are up to it. The wall stops rotating when the climber stops climbing.

The Freedom Climber is 110'' wide and can fit into any room with an 8 foot ceiling. It is an eco-friendly product, constructed of renewable and recycled components. It operates without electricity and has minimal impact on the environment. The colour of the holds can be customized, which is convenient for various facilities that like to use colours that are consistent with their decor or match their logo.
