There are currently five recognized obstacle types: Foot Dexterity, Generating Swing, Climbing (moving with all four limbs), Campusing Movements, and Moving With Obstacles.
These obstacle groupings help athletes to track performance across different obstacles that require similar abilities for the athlete to complete them.
Obstacle types are intended to reflect the dominant skill required to complete the obstacle.
Moving with Obstacles Athlete is moving the obstacle instead of moving through the obstacle.
Campusing Movements Traversing with hands only.
Climbing (moving with all four limbs) Moving upward on or along, to the top of, or over using both hands and feet.
Generating Swing Obstacles rigged from ropes, chains, slings or runners.
Foot Dexterity Lower body obstacles.

The following are common types of obstacles.
Problems that stand in the way of goals.
Obstacles are a common part of the human experience that everyone will face.
However, some people have a higher load of obstacles than others potentially due to underlying issues such as poverty.
A problem that relates to a goal.
Financial, a lack of financial resources, is one type of obstacle.
Poverty is a fundamental type of life obstacle.
Time is another type of obstacle, such as a student who has to take care of a sick relative at home may have much less time for study than their peers.
Health problems can severely drain the time, energy, focus and resources of an individual, which is also a type of obstacle.
A lack of resources is another type of obstacle, for example, a student who has no working electronic devices when their school suddenly shifts to learn-from-home.
Other types of obstacles include stability, problems fitting into the systems and institutions of society, cultural capital, education, relationships, social, biases, quality of life, knowledge, failures, technical, infrastructure, and political obstacles.
Internal obstacles can relate to a person themselves including their personality, talents, behavior and cognitive limitations.
