Answered a Question    Jun 14, 2023

what body type is best for rock climbing?

General Climbing   ·   1 Answer   ·   Write an answer
Top Answer

Rock climbing can be enjoyed by individuals of various body types. While a lean and relatively lightweight body composition can provide advantages in terms of strength-to-weight ratio, there is no specific "best" body type for climbing. Other factors such as technique, flexibility, mental focus, and problem-solving skills also play important roles in climbing success.
