Climbing competitions can expose athletes to high temperatures, which can affect performance and safety. The IFSC develops heat mitigation protocols based on lessons learned from major events such as Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024. These measures include scheduling adjustments, hydration strategies, cooling zones, and staff training to monitor athletes for heat-related stress. By proactively managing environmental risks, the IFSC ensures that athletes can compete safely while maintaining optimal performance in challenging conditions.
