Ms. Namita Nayyar: Who has been your greatest influence and motivator in your success in the field of your career in competitive rock climbing?
Ms. Magdalena Röck: I had important trainers, who brought me step to step where I am now. My first trainer was Mike Gabl, who awakened my fascination for sport climbing. Rupert Messner followed Mike Gabl, showing me the complex mechanisms of training. My current trainer – Martin Hammerer an absolute specialist, who always radiates calmness.
But the greatest influence for my climbing in the last years was/is my younger brother. Benni is also a successful climber, who won 3 times the world junior championship title. Also an absolute specialist and a top trainer for me. He always knows how to enhance my motivation, making rough but decent statements.
Ms. Namita Nayyar: What according to you are the Top 3 Fitness Tips for Rock Climbing?
Ms. Magdalena Röck: Basically, the more you climb the higher your climbing level will be (limits to higher performances can be your technique or restricted training knowledge)
Pay attention to a balanced strength and stamina training (only if you train both your level will rise significantly)
If possible go climbing with someone, whose level is higher than yours (so you can watch and learn)
Ms. Namita Nayyar: You have won IFSC Climbing Worldcup (2014), World Youth Championship (2013), the European Youth Championship (2013), the European Youth Championship (2012) and many more Championships. Tell us about the most memorable experience that you’ve had across all these Championships?
Ms. Magdalena Röck: In 2011 my training performance was good, but because I was still in the youth national team I didn’t know I was allowed to compete on the world championship until two weeks before it took place. With the age of 17, I surprisingly won the bronze medal in this competition!
Ms. Namita Nayyar: You have featured in many magazines and newspapers. How does it fell that you are able to inspire and motivate so many individuals?
Ms. Magdalena Röck: I am not sure, if I can claim to motivate or inspire anybody. However, having attention for what I am doing is I think the most appreciation one can get and therefore I am highly grateful.
