Mechanical loading of primate fingers on vertical rock surfaces
South African Journal of Science, 2021 Mechanical loading of finger bones (phalanges) can induce angular curvature, which benefits arboreal primates by dissipating forces and economising the recruitment of muscles during climbing.

Hemodynamic and cardiorespiratory predictors of sport rock climbing performance [PDF]
, 2018 Rock climbing performance has been suggested to involve a notable contribution from the aerobic metabolism. Previously it has been shown that forearm oxygenation kinetics can be used to distinguish ability groups and predict red-point sport climbing ...

Forearm muscle oxidative capacity index predicts sport rock-climbing performance [PDF]
, 2016 Rock-climbing performance is largely dependent on the endurance of the forearm flexors. Recently, it was reported that forearm flexor endurance in elite climbers is independent of the ability to regulate conduit artery (brachial) blood flow, suggesting ...

Surface Mechanical Effects of Wildfires on Rocks in Climbing Areas
Fire, 2023 Wildfires are widely recognized as a cause of mechanical damage to rocks. Nevertheless, previous research has neglected how wildfires might impact sport climbing areas. In Spain, two large wildfires affected two climbing areas between 2020 and 2021. This

Cardiorespiratory demands of competitive rock climbing [PDF]
Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, 2021 Rock climbing has become a mainstream sport, contested on the Olympic stage. The work/rest pattern of bouldering is unique among disciplines, and little is known about its physiological demands. This study characterised the cardiorespiratory responses to simulated competition. Eleven elite boulderers (7 male) volunteered to participate (age = 23.3 ± 4.
