Question

How do I build up the strength to run up walls?

Community Answer

Do push-ups, squats, and sit-ups daily. You need to make sure you are fit before you begin! Then, practice by climbing trees and bars. It would help you to learn how to catch the wall when you get to that point! When you are doing it for the first time, it is best to climb a stone wall or brick. You can find those around parking lots, behind buildings (Walmart, Target, etc.). You can can also practice on climbing walls in the gym, and trampoline parks are good for practicing jumping.

Question

What should I do if my house has no footholds or handholds?

Community Answer

It depends on your level of climbing and how grippy your hands and feet are. If you are fast and can run up walls you might be able to get up onto your house.
