Abstract:
Background and Aim: Fatigue and environmental effects are one of the causes of injuries and falls leading to serious injury and death in mountaineering. Fatigue also affects the posture and core stability and also leads to balance disorders and lack of postural control. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of fatigue caused by a mountaineering program on the posture of the upper limb and the core stability of the body of professional climbers.
Materials and Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 45 climbers (20-35 years old) were selected by purposive non-random sampling. In this study, doble leg rise test and photography were taken from three directions in order to analyze the posture before and after a mountaineering program at a distance of twelve kilometers at a medium speed. Shapirovilk test was used for statistical analysis to evaluate the normality of data distribution and paired sample t-test was used to evaluate and compare data. All statistical operations were performed using SPSS software version 24 and the significance level of the tests was considered 0.05.
Results: Based on the research, it was found that fatigue has a significant effect on reducing balance, functional stability and changes in the pattern of erectile structure, and the most changes were observed in forward head deformities and reduced functional stability.
Conclusion: This study shows that fatigue aggravates upper limb abnormalities such as forward head complication, decreased functional stability and decreased endurance of muscles in the core stability of climbers. These changes can lead to imbalance and lack of proper control during mountaineering, which will lead to the fall of climbers and irreparable damage.
