Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Leg muscles: the real strength in climbing comes from the legs, particularly the quadriceps muscle. Other important muscles are the hamstrings, gluteals and calf muscles. Shoulder muscles: deltoids and rotator cuff. Torso muscles: pectoralis major (smaller role), latissimus dorsi and rhomboids.

Detailed explanation-2: -As an avid climber and adventurer, Aron Ralston often imagined countless different scenarios of how he’d save himself if something went wrong. But he never thought of the one that would end up making him famous after he cut off his own arm in 2003 to escape from 127 hours stuck in Utah’s Bluejohn Canyon.

Detailed explanation-3: -After remaining trapped for about five days, Ralston broke his own forearm and cut himself free with his multitool. The action cost him much of his arm, but likely saved his life. The ordeal was dramatized in the 2010 movie “127 Hours” starring James Franco. Copyright 2023 Scripps Media, Inc.
