This quote from Jennifer actually describes the way a lot of people feel. Even though they want to stay healthy and fit, after a while they struggle to get excited about gym sessions.

And when you’re bored, you’re just not maximizing your workout.

According to experts, one of the main reasons people stop seeing fitness results and hit an exercise plateau is the lack of diversity in their sessions. Many different trends like CrossFit have attempted to counter this, but more often than not they turn out to be fads.

The Fitness Plateau Problem

They just seem to ignore the most intrinsic part of human nature – the desire for play and natural movement, rather than repetitive and wearisome exercise. This is where Walltopia’s Ninja Course and Boulder climbing walls step in to show that staying fit can be far more engaging, and even feel fun and adventurous.

What is the Ninja Course?

The Ninja Course is an obstacle course suited for all ages which allows users to train and compete with each other in a fun and exciting environment. It offers a variety of different elements which alternate the body parts you’re exercising. You can choose from over 45 high-quality Ninja Course obstacles and the Walltopia consultants will advise you how to combine them according to your goals – choosing the right selection for your area and budget is the key to a successful training course. In case you already have an existing structure, they can also be bought separately and are retrofittable.

Ninja courses can often be seen in combination with boulder walls which provide a thorough strength and endurance training along with a good dose of adrenaline. Both the courses and the walls are easy to install and maintain and they also have a simple structure which allows for quick and cheap upgrades in order to keep the visitor flow going. At the same time, they can bring great value to your gym – users love them because they provide an extra layer of challenge and adventure to their usual workout.

The Key to User Satisfaction: Overcoming Obstacles

The main source of satisfaction for Ninja Course users is successfully overcoming various challenges. To retain and attract visitors, offering a variety of obstacles with distinct structures and purposes is essential. Each obstacle targets different muscle groups, combining cardiovascular and strength exercises to create a fun, engaging workout.

Upper Body Challenges

Upper body obstacles, like sliders and spring bars, exercise the shoulders and arms while keeping the mind engaged. Options like the upstream ladder and spin cycle provide dynamic alternatives to traditional pull-ups.

Lower Body and Cardiovascular Engagement

Obstacles like parkour steps and the ninja wall focus on the lower body, offering an exciting alternative to monotonous exercises like squats or treadmill running. These challenges keep users energized and focused on their next goal.

Abdominal Training with Variety

Abdominal workouts take on new forms through climbing ropes, flying rings, and nets, providing core-strengthening exercises that are both fun and challenging. The variety of obstacles, combined with different difficulty levels, ensures visitors remain engaged physically and mentally.

Keep Users Coming Back

By offering a mix of obstacles and difficulty levels, Ninja Courses create a physically and mentally engaging environment that keeps users coming back for more.

Walltopia’s Ninja courses also offer the customizable Gamifier platform, produced by their partners at Techtopia. It allows visitors to track their progress, compete with their best times and tackle new challenges alone or with their friends. The Gamifier motivates people to return and improve their scores, bring others and popularize your venue in the process.

After the intensive ninja course training stirred up your hunger for adventure, you can then move on to the boulder wall for some more. Apart from providing you with a whole body workout, climbing also supplies a good dose of adrenaline and increases your overall balance and flexibility.

Contrary to most people’s perception, climbing doesn’t just exercise your arms – it also trains the lower parts of the body as doing it properly means lifting yourself mainly with your legs. The amount of hand-eye coordination which climbing requires also takes all of your focus and helps reduce your stress levels. Overall, climbing is a great way to increase both your physical and mental strength and gives you a great sense of achievement when looking down from the top.

Just like it’s near impossible to make a child exercise monotonously in a gym, you shouldn’t put your inner child through that either. Staying fit and healthy is important but don’t turn it into just another piece of your schedule. That’s what Walltopia’s combination of ninja workouts and climbing is here for – just try it and you’ll never go back to ‘normal.’
