Somatic Profile of Competitive Sport Climbers
Since rock climbing grows in popularity, the number of the respective scientific reports increases. However, those concerning anthropometric profile of elite climbers are scarce and inconsistent, thus the aim of the study was to describe the anthropometric characteristics of competitive sport climbers. Male rock climbers (n = 21) aged 17 - 29 years took part in the study; their climbing ability...
متن کاملAnthropometry of young competitive sport rock climbers.
BACKGROUND Adult elite competitive rock climbers are small in stature with low body mass and very low body fat percentage. These characteristics have generated concern that young climbers may attempt body mass reduction to extreme levels with adverse consequences for health and performance. No published anthropometry data for young competitive climbers exist. OBJECTIVE To describe the general...
متن کاملAnalysis of Tests Evaluating Sport Climbers’ Strength and Isometric Endurance
The present study was designed to determine which types of specific tests provide an effective evaluation of strength and endurance in highly trained competitive sport climbers. The research process consisted of three basic components: the measurement of selected somatic characteristics of the climbers, the assessment of their physical conditioning, and a search for correlations between the ant...
متن کاملEvaluation of physiological standard pressures of the forearm flexor muscles during sport specific ergometry in sport climbers.
BACKGROUND Chronic exertional compartment syndromes (CECS) are well known in sports medicine. Most commonly affected is the tibialis anterior muscle compartment in runners and walkers. Only a few cases of CECS of the forearm flexor muscles have been reported. OBJECTIVES To determine pressure levels inside the deep flexor compartment of the forearms during a sport specific stress test. METHO...
متن کاملPhysiological profile of world-class high-altitude climbers.
The functional characteristics of six world-class high-altitude mountaineers were assessed 2-12 mo after the last high-altitude climb. Each climber on one or several occasions had reached altitudes of 8,500 m or above without supplementary O2. Static and dynamic lung volumes and right and left echocardiographic measurements were found to be within normal limits of sedentary controls (SC). Muscl...
