I reckon you've got to factor height somehow into it. Or else us short people are at a disadvantage. Maybe look at body mass index:

BMI = weight in kilograms/(height in metres x height in metres)

See who has a really high BMI and can still crank hard! Also what about pregnant ladies - that would be a lot of excess weight! I think I remember seeing a video clip once of a pretty far along pregnant woman who was cranking out some hard moves (on top rope though)

> Do you need to also perhaps factor in an age variable also just to add complexity to the calculation?

Age or maybe years of climbing instead? Hmm I think we could come up with one pretty complicated formula!
