Climbing
Climbing, like all adventure sports, causes your central nervous system to secrete adrenaline.
Did you know that adrenaline acts as a neurotransmitter and causes an acceleration in your heart rate, blood glucose, blood pressure and metabolism? This stimulation makes our body respond psychically and mentally to emergency situations.
Climbing is a complete sport.You need to be 100% ready physically and mentally. If you are one of those who likes to train mental and physical balance, this is your sport!
