| pubmed-article:10230167 | pubmed:abstractText | High ropes course facilities are employed in adventure programs to promote self-esteem, stress management, and problem-solving skill development. Although the combination of fear, anxiety, and potentially high levels of physical exertion during such activity could yield situations of cardiac risk for certain individuals, no previous research has described the physiological nature of high ropes course work. The purpose of this study was to observe the metabolic and cardiovascular responses to a typical high ropes course experience. | lld:pubmed |
