Articles on climbing
January 21, 2011, 04:54:53 pm
Just stumbled across the following two articles which attempt to quantify climbing performance...

Mermier CM, Jeffrey M Janot1 JM, Parker DL, Swan JG (2000) Physiological and anthropometric determinants of sport climbing performance Br J Sports Med 34:359-365

Watts PB (2004) Physiology of difficult rock climbing Euro J App Phys 91:361-372

Read and draw your own conclusions from their research.


Have added them to the wiki.

Perhaps collect other such articles here (and on the wiki of course).
