Climbing, you have the will to push yourself, because if you don't your fooked.

Rowing will get you fitter, climbing less repetitive.

I'll get the sponge to wipe you up when you fall 500ft onto jaggy bolders.

cheers for the input.
I want to get fit, be stronger, and have something enjoyable to look forward to.

Might start both
I'm a lazy cunt at the mo. occasional bike ride is as much excercise as i partake in

GO to the gym matey

I do the rowing machines there, a quick 2000m here and there is all good.

I can tell you as a climber it's not exactly an aerobic sport much more anaerobic (sp).
Definately worth taking up and even if you start by using an indoor wall make sure you get outside with someone more experienced at some point.
Have a look on www.ukclimbing.com to find people in your area.
Also if you want to get stronger buy a fingerboard they are awesome for improvements.
