The number of athletes involved in climbing sports has increased. Specific physical and psychological skills are required. The objective of this review was to determine the factors of high performance climbing. We evaluated the physiological, biomechanical and psychological characteristics that simplify the ascent. We also evaluated training and recovery strategies.
Thin skinfold thickness, body fat, and large volume of forearms were anthropometric traits in successful climbers. Well-trained forearm flexors with high aerobic capacity lead to effective styling. The strength and endurance of the handle, the postural stability and the optimized kinematic movements were favorable. Elite climbers had long periods of suspension with their fingers and arms bent. Psychologically, an "iceberg profile" was typical. Constant touch training and dynamic eccentric-concentric training helped push the “red dot note”.
The strength of the hand, forearm and endurance are very important elements for elite climbers. An effective climbing style with perpetual concentration and precision, high speed and low exhaustion due to adaptation to repeated isometric exercises is useful in ascent, while low body fat and large pulp bone at the tip make it easier. Constant training is essential, e.g. eccentric-concentric training of the flexors of the fingers, which must be followed by active recovery.
