About

Hello, I’m ChalkWarrior—just a regular person who decided to give bouldering a try… and got hooked.

This blog is my space to document my journey from total beginner to (hopefully) someone who can scale a V5 without panicking halfway up. I started bouldering with zero experience, no gear, and only a vague idea of what I was getting into. What I did have was curiosity, a decent gym habit, and a willingness to fall (a lot).

Here, you’ll find my climbing progress, thoughts on gear, gym stories, maybe a few scraped elbows, and all the highs and humbling moments in between. Whether you’re a fellow newbie, a seasoned climber, or just curious about the sport, I hope you find something here that inspires you—or at least makes you laugh.

Let’s climb.
