Silové schopnosti a jejich vliv na sportovní výkon v lezení

Abstract

The article discusses the impact of strength abilities on performance in climbing. Strength abilities were measured using two motor tests. It was a test of dynamometry and pull-up hang test. Furthermore, anthropometric variables, which include height, weight and body fat percentage, have been measured. During the research a total of 46 persons have been measured; these were divided into three groups – performance climbers, recreational climbers and non-climbers. Only men have been included in the test. The groups have been compared to each other with statistically significant differences being found in parameters “pull-up hang” and “body fat percentage”. No statistically significant differences between other parameters have been found.
