I'm not the fit guy at all. I hardly ever exercise. But I sweat A LOT if I use the stairs to go to the floor below. So yeah, all bodies are different.

- npsimons 12y agoAll bodies are different; I read the GP and thought, "yeah, no, I'm in fairly decent shape, and I have to work really hard for a good long while to break a sweat". I never have to use chalk while rock climbing, for instance. I think my body's adaptation at this point is that light physical exertion isn't even a warmup for me any more, and I've burned quite a bit of "insulation" off (biking in to work does make the fridge cold labs feel warmer). That being said, having a shower is another good way to wake myself up, sweaty or not.
- sliverstorm 12y agoWRT Chalk & climbing, propensity to sweaty hands differs from person to person, but for both myself and my climbing partner, need for chalk is almost all mental. When I've got a cool head and smooth moves, my hands are dry as a bone. When I'm freaking out on lead, my hands get progressively more slippery... FWIW chalk improves the friction coefficient of your hands, and seems to reduce friction damage to the skin, so I try to use it anyway.
