  • Ep 32: Andy McVittie - Evolution of Climbing Injuries in Competition
    Andy is a climbing PT from Process Physiotherapy. He has been climbing for over 30 years, has coached in the past, and over time has noticed climbing injuries change as the style of climbing has evolved in the competition scene. In this episode, we'll debunk some training and PT myths, talk about the differences between male and female climbers and the types of injuries they face, and we’ll hear about why he thinks fingers are strong enough.Guest links:WebsiteInstagramReference links:Frontiers | Top of the podium, at what cost? injuries in female international elite climbersPainfully ignorant?
