G'day guys, I'm a year twelve student in SA and I'm doing my Research Project topic on how much improvement Cardio work does to your rock climbing ability. It would be a huge help if you guys could fill it out, especially if you exercise specifically for rock climbing. :)
This is the link:

Someone did a big study at UoW in the 90s with VO2 max readings (nearly killed me when they tried to get my heart rate to 21 y.o. level), even sent James Holbrook on laps of SWALK at the Freezer with an oxygen mask.

Would love to know the outcome of that one ... I climbed a bit in the 90's, then spent 15 years doing endurance sport to an okay level (in 1997 I couldn't run a kilometre continuously, in 2005 I did Hawaii IM). Now that I've returned to climbing, I've found ... absolutely no endurance benefit whatsoever !

(Although being a fat bastard probably isn't helping)
