I only ever go when I need to get in shape. I have a 1 month membership to the local gym only because I'm going to Red Rocks in early March.

right--
but what comes to mind first?
another example: does anyone consider certain problems/routes in a gym to be their "projects", or is that title reserved for "real" climbing?

On more than one occasion I've had someone in the gym asking me what I'm working on and I respond with my list of projects at the Red. I don't really think of the gym as a place to go and "work" a route. I'm sure some people do though.

There are no Proj's in the gym. Either Piggy "Lowers the chains" or I crush it eventually.

train. in fact i've stopped climbing 'problems' in my garage as it tends to mess with real climbing. instead i'm using system crimps and campus rungs to train specific weaknesses.
