Competitive climbing has a problem - Here's what the IFSC says about RED-S and eating disorders

For a long time, only the side of the IFSC critics was heard in the matter of RED-S and eating disorders in climbing. The association is finally speaking out.

The program is presented by Bächli Bergsport and Petzl

We have a long interview with Marco Scalaris guided. Are our athletes healthy? When are there binding rules? Will people who have RED-S and eating disorders be banned? We discuss these and other questions with the IFSC President.

In addition, we have with the sports doctor Dr. Volker Schöffl, with DAV trainer Sagi Damti, sports psychologist Maria Stefania Ionel, head of competitive sports at the SAC Urs Stoecker and talked to various athletes.
