I am building a small indoor wall at my work and have just bought a climbing hold set. The holds are small which means that i will be crimping for most of the moves. How effective is crimping alone in improving my climbing strength?

In reply to Matt Adey:

It will make you stronger at crimping. If you open hand them it will make you better at open handing. Anything else (power, technique, undercut strength etc) depends on how you set, how steep the board is, and so on.

In reply to AJM:Thanks for the advice, i am prety limited to want i can make here at my work. I suppose the wall will be a step up from a finger board at the very least. cheers
