Anotace
A common practice among rock climbers is wearing smaller climbing shoes than is their actual size. The small shoe leads the foot into a supinated and cavus posture inducing lateral instability and increased pressure on the heel. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of competitive rock climbing training on plantar pressures during the gait. An elite Czech rock climber specialized in lead climbing and bouldering, a winner of Climbing Word Cup, Climbing Word Championships and European Championships, participated in this study. 12 male participants from general population, matching by age, height and body weight were selected for the comparison with the elite climber. Plantar pressures of all participants were recorded during barefoot walking using the Emed-at (Novel GmbH, Germany) and the differences in maximal force, peak pressure, contact time and contact area of obtained footprints of the climber and matching males from general population were statistically analyzed using t-test. The results of the comparison show smaller maximal force, peak pressure and contact time at the area of hindfoot and transversal arch, i.e. MH1, 2 and 3, in the elite climber. On the other hand, in the elite climber, increase in maximal force and peak pressure in toes together with a longer contact time in the toe area was found. Similarly, increased peak pressure in toes were observed in hallux valgus patients suggesting maybe the future hallux valgus development in the climber. Additionally, the increase in maximal force, peak pressure and contact time in toes might be caused by the stronger difference between the shoe and barefoot condition in the elite climber as his foot is accustomed to small climbing shoe. Future studies including more participants will provide a more detailed knowledge of the effect of climbing shoes on the gait.
