To enhance the Romanian climbers’ performance, an intervention on the tactical and psychological components of the training is needed. We believe that this intervention should be made from a young age. The objective of this paper is to highlight the current training models for sports climbing in the literature and provide a critical analysis on them, so that we can define some project-programmes for the training of young climbers. The systematic review of the literature has identified that the variables most correlated with climbing performance are: mental characteristics (personality traits, temperament, locus of control and tactics), technical characteristics (coordination and technical abilities) and physical characteristics (flexibility, fitness and efficiency). We have also observed how efficient some practical and methodological approaches are in climbing training.
