I have been rock climbing for 13 years and trees only 4. If you are not in the trees the best work out i find is bouldering(low angle rock climbing) and skipping in between and at home chin up pyramids 1 chin up 45 second break 2 chin ups 45 second break and follow that to 10 chin ups and then back down to one if that gets easy start at 5 and go to 15. bouldering is great exercise builds super strong core, back, and grip strength and no rope so you can keep climbing instead of coming down and untying and tying knots. Climb with other people at rock gyms they can teach you a lot of technique which will help you get strong.

Good Luck
