According to a study published in 'Frontiers in Nutrition', experienced climbers are often at risk of energy restriction and iron deficiency. Proper nutrition is crucial immediately following a session for replenishing energy stores, repairing muscle fibers, and ensuring readiness for the next climb. This guide breaks down the science behind recovery and provides actionable food choices to help you climb harder and recover faster.

Strenuous exercise like climbing causes micro-tears in muscle fibers that require proper nutrition for repair. So, should I have protein after climbing? Yes, consuming protein post-climb is crucial for muscle recovery and adaptation.
