Recommendations for unexperienced climbers, how to look serious on the rock

Recommendations for unexperienced climbers, how to look serious on the rock:

1. When you do not know how to proceed or have no energy to do that, powder the arms for a while. Everybody will think you are preparing to continue soon.

2. Never fear to try difficult tracks (you of course might know you will fail, it is even better to be sure of it), as courage gives an impression of being a good climber, or at least that you might become one.

3. Learn some tricky warm-up exercises for some invisible and non-existent muscles.
From our experience, the best is to use karate exercises, not only stretching, but also fighting moves and positions.

4. Keep on "administrating" different sites and cite them when speaking with others (it is especially cool to cite this site)
