4 LOOKING BACK TO YOUR LESSON Answer the following questions. 1. How will you plan an outdoor activity? 2. What are the things that you need to consider in creating a plan?
BRIEF INTRODUCTION What is climbing? It is an act to go upward with gradual or continuous progress; also referring to as raising oneself specially by grasping or clutching with hands. What are the benefits of climbing? A good aerobic exercise that will improve your stamina and endurance as well as muscle strength and in addition, reaching and stretching for holds will improve your flexibility and agility. Mountaineering – most adventurous and it is the oldest type of climbing. Roman Emperor Hadrian‘s ascent of Etna was the first recorded mountain ascent in the common era. Climbing 3,350 m. to see the sun rise in 121 AD. Mainly in Europe, mountaineering is a sport of climbing a mountain also referred to as mountain climbing or Alpinism that can range from few hours to multi-day expeditions. This is more physically demanding than hiking.

Trad or Traditional Climbing – a rock climbing style in which a climber or
group of climbers place all gear required that will help them in climbing and remove it when a passage is completed.

Sport Climbing – rock climbing style relies on permanent anchors fixed to
the rock, and possible bolts, for protection. It places an emphasis on gymnastic-like ability, strength, and endurance.

Bouldering – style of rock climbing undertaken without a rope and normally
limited to very short climbs over a crash pad (called a bouldering mat).

Top Rope Climbing or Top Roping – a very useful type of climbing in
teaching beginner to intermediate level. A style of climbing in which a rope, used for the climber’s safety, runs from a belayer or a persons secure at the end of the rope, through one or more carabiners or connector to hold a freely running rope, connected to an anchor system at the top of the route and back down to the climber by means of a harness.

FreeSolo – type of climbing where the climber also known as free soloist climbs without ropes, harnesses and other protective gear while ascending and only relies on physical strength, climbing ability, psychological fortitude to avoid a fatal fall (Mistake means the end of you).

8 ACTIVITIES Test Endurance Activity 1: Resting Heart Rate This activity will determine your current fitness level as a mountaineer.
INSTRUCTIONS. MEASURING YOUR HEART RATE
1. Put your index and middle finger on either your neck (carotid artery) or wrist (radial artery). 2. Now, find your pulse and count how many beats occur in 20 seconds. 3. Then, you multiply the beats you count by 3.(It is your Resting Heart Rate) (Write it in a piece of paper, so you can remember.)

This activity will determine how many meters or feet you can ascend in 15 minutes.
IMPORTANT! Your safety is important so always consider your own fitness and circumstances before you commence physical activity and wear your shoes for foot protection.
9 Materials and Variables: 1. Step Height (30 – 50 cm. or 11 – 20 inches) 2. Pack Weight – Backpack with at least 5 kilograms
Note: Make a video of yourself while executing the 15 Minute Step test. (You can execute the 15 Minute step test in your most convenient time)
INSTRUCTIONS. 1. Set up your timer for 15 minutes and ensure the height of the step/box and the weight of your backpack.
2. Step up and down on the step/box and each time you step up, that is the completed repetition. 3. Next, you will count the number of completed repetition for 15 minutes. 4. Then, Record the number of completed step ups. 5. Lastly, retest your heart rate immediately after completing the test. TIPS: - If you need to rest you may take a short rests every 100 steps, - shake out your feet, - hydrate by drinking and get back to it, same applies in the mountain.
EVALUATING RESULT: 15 Minute Step Test
You can write the result in a piece of paper. Follow the formula.
ASCENDED METERS / FEET = Step or box Height X number of step ups.
e.g. step/box height is 30cm and you completed 300 step ups. 0.30 X 300 = 90m
REMEMBER Mountaineering is an outdoor activity that is considered to be an oldest form of climbing. There are different kinds of climbing from traditional to free solo and it will require a high level of fitness.
