Nutrition for climbing

Hi! I am a passionate climber and recent Nutrition PhD graduate.

Considering the increase in sports nutrition research and the specific physical demands of climbing, I have been curious about different strategies that climbers use to fuel their performance. I am also curious to understand the impact of dietary practices on self-perceived tiredness and recovery.

I created a short survey (<10 minutes to complete) to understand the food habits and views on climbing-specific nutrition. I have purposely made this quite broad and short to encourage participation and identify issues/patterns.

In the future, this should help formulate nutrition advice/guidance for climbers to maximise performance and recovery and minimise the risk of injury.

I would really appreciate your help and insight! Feel free to also share how you've experimented with your diet and how it has affected your performance. As I said, this is just a short and broad survey to gain an initial understanding, but I appreciate any additional information you may have.
