Climbing technique

Climbing technique involves the skillful use of body position, movement, and equipment to ascend a surface efficiently and safely. It includes balancing your weight, placing your hands and feet precisely, and using your legs rather than your arms to conserve energy. Good technique minimizes strain and maximizes stability. It also involves reading the route to identify holds and planning movements ahead of time. Proper technique enhances safety, efficiency, and confidence, allowing climbers to tackle more challenging routes while reducing fatigue and risk of injury.
