I have a 42' rohn 25 tower with a ta-33 and 2meter vertical above,I am in very 
good shape,run 8 miles a week I weigh 170 at 5'9 and can overhead press 205 
which aint bad,I do climb the tower then buckle in at the top,I will say every 
step up is slow and methodical.I concentrate where i grab the tower and where 
my foot is resting.If my foot slips off the rung I can easily hold my weight to 
regain my footing.In a few years when i become old i will shackle when 
climbing.If this tower was any higher i would exersize a bit more caution.be 
safe.
