The purpose of this study was to describe, using time motion analysis and heart rate telemetry, the intensity and movement characteristics in rock wall and ropes course activities. Twenty elementary school children were divided into high and low strength groups based on their performance of a 1 repetition maximal (1 RM) bench press test. Each student was required to complete the rock wall and ropes course circuit which consisted of 12 climbing related segments. Results revealed that the mean heart rate intensity for the entire circuit was 80.6% over a mean duration of 36 minutes 20 seconds. The high strength group had a lower mean heart rate and a shorter duration for the entire circuit. The correlation between predicted V02 max and total duration was moderate (r = $-$0.39), suggesting that aerobic fitness level influenced performance.
