just go to the gym if needs be.. i do chest and biceps 1 day, back & legs the next visit, then shoulders and triceps the next visit... but each to there own...

Swimming will do less than you think. Takes much longer to get your muscles warm so you won't get any benefit. If you want stamina, start skipping. That is one of the hardest things to do!

 

Plenty press ups with narrow wide and medium width stance to use all of your pectorals. Incline sit ups to do back and abs. Find a cheap gym and a trainer to point you right.

Work hard, grow strong.

IMO you don't need to train or go to the gym. Just climb. Your body will sort itself out eventually with the right muscle groups. Remember it's power/weight ration that's important, not just being ripped (at least that's what i tell myself )

agree ..the body adapts to what it does regular. abut after it adapts to climbing and you want to become even more beastly at climbing then do bodyweight stuff like chins, pistols etc. getting a strong grip helps

As above your best off being slight but strong. The bigger you are the more energy you use.

Climb more!

 

 

If your gonna do any training for strength etc then just do pull ups over arm and under, dips and press ups. Basic and free!

 

You could work harder at work and get paid for the work out!
