Well its nearly Sunday in Australia....

M>W work. Shit forecast.
Th. Crap forecast
Fr: Depot, Manchester. Then off to the airport

MAN > LHR
LHR > MNL
MNL > DAR

Just as well my SHARKATHON(tm) doesn't involve exercise as I've spent most of the last 24 hours sat on my arse. 

[Nibile]

[tomtom]

Well its nearly Sunday in Australia....

I thought you were in Hungary...

Sticky northern Australia for a week... have fingerboard will travel

[nai]

liking csl's approach, so:

coming week:
3 strength sessions, 3 conditioning sessions, LI & HI AeroCap

coming month
do all Wave L2s in a session
do 3 or more L3s in a session
register some Anston (and maybe grit) ticks.
start AnCap

coming season
climbing goals tbc
stay healthy, have fun

M - Foundry being reset, garage condensed, outside sopping. Still a bit done in from Saturday anyway. Managed to warm up on the wooden holds & rungs then Max hangs & conditioning

T - slightly dodgy guts again, felt a bit off. HI AeroCap, conditioning

W - felt rough

Th - still not great, drove to miniWorks intending to AeroCap then decided against it

Fr - bit better - warmed up at home then chanced Anston which turned out to be mint. Started on Colt but made no progress; made it through the hard section of Fine Art then cocked up, unfortunately it was in shade so I was getting cold between attempts so left it til next time; with just 10 minutes left decided to have a look at a sunny Beretta reasoning it'd give me a chance of success next time but sussed all the moves really quickly and felt like I could have done it with a bit more time. Felt significantly easier than the other pair, morphology I guess.

S - LI AeroCap

S rest

[nai]

Injuries: crunchy right shoulder, need to keep a close eye on this

Mine's like this, down to tight/locked/muscles, could even be down in the lower Traps. Try getting a massage or get the foam roller & spikey balls out and try Eagle arms, thread the needle & scarf stretches plus some scapular pullups & pressups.

[Dolly]

M nothing. Felt knackered all day
T Had to pick up some tiles so on a whim went to awesome walls for the first time which was near. It’s probably ok for routes if you like that sort of thing
W Bodyweight HIT
T The Wave. Hard. It’s just the best int it ?
F Out on cross bike through some woods I’d never been to before. Muddy cold hard fun
S beastmaker for first time in ages
S My fingers and lats  felt it from the beast maker. Auto belay routes at gym.


Hopefully will get outside this week even if it’s Anston

[shark]

11.3-4

M. Systems board AnCap Attempted 3 sets of 4 goes on Oak AnCap sequence. Got thru crimpy start every time but only through throw move (move 12) about half of them. Then did a set of 20:10s. Tips worn. Again

T. Fingerboard, Did ok on fingerboard on crimps and half crimps (11 and 12 sec hang on 12mm with +5kg) but when came to do drags my strongest grip with +10kg couldn't hold edge at all. Tips were sore and thin and I was tired but I think the main issue was skin was glassy. Been regularly using a lot of Elizabeth Arden and seem to have acquired frictionless sheen on my skin in process, (yes I had scrubbed tips to get rid of residue before the session). Invested in sanding block the following morning to get my tips in better and rougher shape

W. Foundry Easyish warm up on autobelay. Wave reset. Did most of level2s on steep section and got close on wasp left of centre. Warm down on autobelay

T. Foundry Easyish warm up on autobelay. Did wasp left of centre first attempt. Tried a mid height iron cross type move on wasp right of centre but shut down on it. Short session

F. Foundry Easyish warm up on autobelay. Wave Still couldn't do iron cross type move on wasp right of centre. Started working black and got decent progress then managed to do iron cross move. Warm down autobelay

S. Anston. Sleety horrid weather driving there. Probably would have turned round if I hadn’t arranged to meet Karl B  Amazingly Soul Crusher was dry and the conditions perfect. Also my skin was good at last. Had a great session with Karl working SC, finally doing the second move ie holding the slot and manoeuvring feet around the roof. Did the first move a few times as well but too tired to nail the third move.

S Systems board AnCap. Slight improvement on Monday

Good week and generally things seem to be going in the right direction. Seem to be able to sustain climb/train successive days on so will try to gradually add to volume of sessions especially the L1 aerocap work advised by nai last week. Just going up a 6a+ and down a 5 a couple of times without stopping is a bit pumpy at the minute.

May throw in an easier week soon – possibly this week depending how I feel. Tweaked my back pottering in kitchen on tuesday morning which later in day became a sore lat. A reminder to resume regular stretching.

Still on track with Sharkathon which includes no booze. Weight has settled this month at 11.3-4 and 11-12% body fat which whilst a decent range Im still disappointed  that I’m not losing it, so to speak. Cherry on the cake this week was doing the key move on Soul Crusher. \o/

[Nibile]

Power Club

Mon - metcon complex, brutal.
Tue - rest.
Wed - cleans 5-3-1, fourth week, deload.
Thu - ab wheel and snatch pulls complex, back to back.
Fri -  rest.
Sat - boxing bag.
Sun - foot on campusing on back and front3, front and mid2, full crimp.

[Coops_13]

Felt significantly easier than the other pair, morphology I guess.

I think it's a bit easier, just need to unlock the crucial beta on Colt and it feels fine. Once you've done Beretta, you can do the Extension. That should hit one of those sport climbing energy systems for sure...

[duncan]

csl, mind how you go with that shoulder. Do you any supportive/conditioning exercises other than stretching?


STG - Rehab. finger. Shoulder stretches and strength work 3x weekly.
MTG - V4 on the Westway steep board by (mid) March. 7b in Siurana / Arboli in March.
LTG - A classic Pembroke E5; a proper 7b+; a long free route somewhere interesting I’ve not visited before.
M - Pull-ups, general shoulder strengthening.
T - Westway: 300m to 5+. ‘Aerocap’ / rehab. on the autobelay
W - Pull-ups, stretches.
T - Westway: 350m to 6a. ‘Aerocap’ / rehab. on the autobelay.
F - Fingerboard (Left hand ‘pick up', 3 grips, to 37kg), stretches.
S - Pull-ups, general shoulder strengthening, child-wrangling.
S - Westway with tentative Spain partner: lead c.15 routes to 6b.

Another decent week: gradually ramping up the load on the finger. Pull-ups are going well: back to the 70s! Choosing friendly holds is still important to avoid lateral stresses on the joint. It’s vulnerable without buddy taping even for non-climbing things. Some way off bouldering which has scuppered the winter plans but I can be building a good endurance base and do lots of conditioning for the shoulder(s).
 
Plan: continue to increase the climbing volume.

[Coops_13]

M: Conditioning and antagonists
T: Arch - moonboard. 1 6B+, 1 6C, 1 6C+, 2 7A, 2 7A+. Had a play on the 50 after this
W: Conditioning and antagonists
T: Arch - moonboard. 3 6B+, 2 6C, 3 6C+, 6 7A, 2 7A+ 1 7B. Big session
F:
S: Almscliff - dry! Warmed up repeating Dolphin Belly Slap, tried some of the moves on Exorcist SuperShort. Went down and crushed Underhand 7B+ first proper go. Third session, pretty psyched but no vid of the screaming unfortunately. Retroflashed Crusis then did Virgin Traverse link into Crusis (new problem on UKC so why not...). Then went back up to DWR area and managed to stick the next move on Exorcist SS (with bicycle, uncrossing hands and slapping out left). Could be one to try again in future... Finished up doing some more eliminates under the Crucifix
S: Snowy so went to the Works. Had a play on the walls and a bit on the Motherboard, pretty tired though.

[csl]

Thanks nai, i tend to forget upper body stretches and concentrate on my legs so I'd better sort that out. Also didn't know the name for thread the needle and have been trying to remember that one for ages!

Duncan, I don't do a great deal of conditioning at the moment. I occasionally do the rings workout from Lattice but I'll try and make sure I do some more until my shoulder is back to normal.

Well done Coops, psyched you did underhand!

[nai]

Felt significantly easier than the other pair, morphology I guess.

just need to unlock the crucial beta on Colt and it feels fine

I've found the kneebar, not sure if it's cricket though.

[yetix]

STG: Get back into training
MTG: Picnic Sarcastic SS, Suavito, Simple Simon
LTG: 7C

62.5kg


Just got back from 3 weeks in Albarracin, completed the majority of my tick list with only 2 things not getting finished off (Fight Club and La Feunte), so I'll have to head back soon to finish these off it seems! Completed the hole trip without using tape for tendon issues which is a major win for me too!

M: Rest
T: Depot 30 board session
W: Boulder UK. Just pottered about really, nothing too difficult
T: Rest
F: Rest
S: Boulder UK 55 board. Got spanked, but tried a lot, looking forward to getting on this board more. Hiked afterwards.
S: Rest

I never used a kneebar but I remember some kind of drop-knee right toe-hook being useful

[nai]

Not sure I've ever done a drop-knee toe-hook. My logic reckons that would rotate my shoulder further away from the hold but could be wrong

Been and done Baretta today, can't be any harder than 6C. Not inspired by the exension though.  Colt and FIne Art varying degrees of damp but worked on Blind Bat and Last Stand.  Good to have four problems at the same grade to go at within 10m of each other.

Effort on Underhand, quality problem.

[Coops_13]

Yeah you could be right haha, can't really remember what I did. The extension actually adds some good moves immediately after the normal crux, each harder than the crux of Beretta. The romp on slopey jugs is a bit of a ruiner and the RP crux mantle at the end of colt is good. I just did it after failed attempts on Bullet. Probably 7A+ for the extension...

[shark]

Been and done Baretta today, can't be any harder than 6C.

 

[measles23]

68.6kg

M- nil
T- 3hrs on Vanilla Sky in the rain = top wall soaked and dripping; linked the crux off the floor twice but with nowhere to go - dunno whether to be psyched or gutted.. decided to dispense with the cute deep egyptian and “climb strong, climb front on”..
W- nil, pigs escaped 
T- Distracted by repairing damage from escaped pigs
DL - poor distracted session, also lost my headphones so no psyche - warmups to 200 but failed at 215 - 215 off 1” blocks..
Stoke AW - 1 hr problems; finished off one of the comp V7s I couldn’t do.. flashed something not too hard on the moonboard..
F- nil, left middle MCP joint swollen like a walnut + painful ++ wtf
Drove to visit bro in wales
S- Visiting bro in Wales rain ++++ MCP joint still swollen and hurting; beginning to think it’s irremedial arthritis and will never pull hard again 
S- Home again; MCP arguably slightly better..

All a bit m’eh

[Murph]

Coops - thanks for sharing the psyche as always!
Measles - you must have been the only person bothering on Tuesday. Crazy mofo. The motivation sounds high. Hope you’re getting it on film.

My offering:

M-long day at work, 16kg kettlebells Simple and Sinister, 5 Minute Abs
T-the most rushed of works sessions, 20k cycle commute, 16kg S&S, 5MA
W-24kg swings/16kg get ups S&S, 5MA, 20k cycle
T-20k cycle, 8k run, works session making little impression on as yet unclimbed murples (6B?) then whizzed round the pinkles (Fb3?)
F-16/24kg S&S, 5MA
S-10k icy run, whizzed round the pinkles again then had the best fingerboard session in eighteen months! either that or, more likely, the works beastmaker is soft. Or their weights are light. Or warming up on pinkles is actually a really good idea. I’ll regurgitate the whole session here for the record:

Minute mark / hold / added weight / seconds
1/18mm/16kg/10
4/18/20/10
7/18/36/10
10/18/36/10
13/14/16/10
16/14/20/10
19/14/36/10
22/14/40/10 (this was the good one)
25/14/40/6
28/14/36/10

TMI for powerclub maybe? But that was a great fingerboard session I was stoked. After that I celebrated with a 20kg S&S still at the works. No problem with this weight despite wrist issues in the past.
S-10k run in the snow. Lacrosse ball stuff and 5MA.

67.3kg->66.8kg

Feels like the plan is coming together.

[measles23]

TMI for powerclub maybe?

No such thing - bring on the data!
Shwirley its time to get back projecting on rock, you’re clearly in shape for it?

[Murph]

Yeah man it feels it. Surely sometime soon. A bit more boning down and I’ll get stuck in again in Feb. The aspiration is to get it ticked by April and move on with my life. I’m not rushing it - learned that mistake already.

Good luck with VS!

[tommytwotone]

Not a great deal from me - still dealing with a shanked shoulder.


Kept up the fasting apart from Weds when a stressful morning led to me cracking and having a bagel. Still no booze (last beer 1st Jan).


One gym session on Fri lunchtime, revived the 10k gymathlon - 5km bike, 3km run (@ 1 degree incline), 2km row. Didn't time it strictly but came in about 32 mins - all in 16hr fasted state.


Weighed myself on the gym scales and was at 66kg, which I'm sure is lighter than I have been but I didn't weight myself when I embarked on all this!

[Coops_13]

[Yossarian]

STG - Slim down
MTG - 7A / 7b+ / E3+
LTG - tbc

Monday - Wall. Decided to do ‘fun’ session on problems rather than training. Surprised myself (and the CrossFit brigade) on various things.
Tues-Friday - Loads of last minute work and day in London
Saturday - 45 board and circuit board
Sunday - Cooking and eating
Weight 101.3 - 101.0kg - Fasting still going well, but gorged on Taiwanese junk food in London and then ate too much pasta / baked bread over the weekend.
Need to get back out running this week and drop down to 90something kg.
Swanage trip postponed till mid Feb, so when the rain stops aiming to get out anywhere for some bouldering instead.

[highrepute]

S: Almscliff - dry! Warmed up repeating Dolphin Belly Slap, tried some of the moves on Exorcist SuperShort. Went down and crushed Underhand 7B+ first proper go. Third session, pretty psyched but no vid of the screaming unfortunately. Retroflashed Crusis then did Virgin Traverse link into Crusis (new problem on UKC so why not...). Then went back up to DWR area and managed to stick the next move on Exorcist SS (with bicycle, uncrossing hands and slapping out left). Could be one to try again in future...

Boom! impressive numbers. I did something similar the other day and managed 10sec +30kg on the BM2000 bottom L/R edges but I don't know what mm they are.

I'm sure it's out there on the internet somewhere but I can't find it. Which BM edges are the 18mm and 14mm edges?

I've  got a BM1000 what mm have I got? how does that compare to BM2000. Thanks.

Thanks!

The bottom edges on BM2000 are 14mm, just like the top small holds on the BM1000. There's a bit of debate over this, but I think the BM1000 actually has slightly smaller holds than the BM2000. Crazy, I know.

The bottom edges on BM1000 are 18mm.

(All my hangs were on the BM1000 in the works that has a phone holder.)

Underhand extension is the obvious next step from here, Shirley?

Yeah idk, always thought it looked a bit kak, but I suppose an eliminate super short version of a lip shuffle is probably the same...

[Will Hunt]

If you can do Underhand neatly and you have the PE to do Crusis (which I've always found quite knackering if you don't get the sit bit right) then you can definitely do Underhand Extension.
Spend a little time dialling the first bit so you can do it efficiently without cutting loose and then just make sure that you're familiar with the end sequence.

It's obviously marred by being a weird extension, but it manages to be a really decent way to finish the problem. Plus, if you ignore the 7Cs that are blatantly not actually 7C, it's about as cheap a 7C as you'll find.

[Bradders]

Colt and FIne Art varying degrees of damp

How was Dark Art looking?

TMI for powerclub maybe?

Definitely not TMI. That said, and not to criticise or anything, but jeepers your fingers sound strong for the grade you're climbing/aiming for!! Perhaps time to address some other weaknesses? For comparison, I'm climbing/aiming to climb 8A boulders and the best I've managed on a 13mm edge is 27.5kg for 8 seconds. My fingers have always been one of my weak links but still.

Anyway:

STG - 5 problems, in no particular order; Zoo York, Chiasmata, Frank, Dark Art & Crazy Legs Crome. Get stronger legs for skiing at the end of Jan
MTG - high 7s not my normal style on grit, Lager3 & Ben's Groove Sit in particular
LTG - so much to do, so little time

M - Depot 50 session. Aimed for variety and did lots of roughly 80% of max style problems.
T - lunch superset squats and bench press, mainly 5x 3r @ 60kg on both
W - lunch hangboard session. Explored doing one arm hangs with assistance attached to a harness. Felt utterly nails. Best I could do was 9 seconds on a 15mm edge with 27.5kg assistance. Also did some two arm weighted hangs and achieved my above noted max., so not a bad session.
T - Depot, did the second half of a hard yellow, then worked beta on the start and did all the moves. Then another 50 board session, more volume first then attempts on my project. Also had brief goes on one of 36Cs problems on very small holds. Got nowhere!
F - rest
S - Depot 50 session. Finally climbed the easy version of my project, which is a sort of Zoo York simulator. Felt properly strong on it.
S - rest

Good week but a bit knackered now. I think next time I'm on one arm hangs I'll try holding the assistance with the other hand, see what difference that makes.

[yetix]

Boom! impressive numbers. I did something similar the other day and managed 10sec +30kg on the BM2000 bottom L/R edges but I don't know what mm they are.

The bottom edges on BM1000 are 18mm.

(All my hangs were on the BM1000 in the works that has a phone holder.)

I'm sure I read the top edges on the 1000 were 12mm, and the bottom 2000 were 14mm. Pretty sure I saw that on a picture with edge dimensions a year ago. Could be my imagination though.

[nai]

How was Dark Art looking?

Couldn't say for sure but when I arrived Fine Art footholds under the roof were wet, when I left they were merely damp.  Last Friday everything was totally dry, seems to change day to day.  Probably be back Thursday or Friday this week so will check it out properly.

[Bradders]

Probably be back Thursday or Friday this week so will check it out properly.

Thanks. Sweet, hoping to go Thursday after work so if you're there before then could you give an update?!

[nai]

Yep, will do.

[nai]

you have the PE to do Crusis

~10 moves might be a relatively long problem (although four of them are matches) but I'm not sure it could be classed as PE.

[Dolly]

Thats cos you go chuffing.
To someone who just boulders its a stamina plod

[measles23]

Probably be back Thursday or Friday this week so will check it out properly.

Thanks. Sweet, hoping to go Thursday after work so if you're there before then could you give an update?!

Everything was completely soaked today  could’t find a dry hold - humid+++

[Murph]

not to criticise or anything, but jeepers your fingers sound strong for the grade you're climbing/aiming for!! Perhaps time to address some other weaknesses?

Thanks Bradders. You’re not the first person to make that observation! It’s useful to hear how strong other people are who climb the harder grades. I wish a number could be put on your strengths so I could see how I really line up.

I think of it like this, I have a ton of weaknesses to work on, like anterior pelvic tilt, inward shoulder rotation the flexibility of a crowbar and truly horrible technique. Sometimes I try to work on those issues but it’s a bit of a grind and who really knows where that path goes.

Meanwhile the thing I want to climb is 7C+ lime and is fingery. I could turn up there with the least anteriorly rotated pelvis in the world but if I’ve got weak fingers I’m not getting up it. I’ve fallen off the top hold a bunch of times when I was in better shape so the aim is to get back into that shape and not fuck it up next time.

So far this year I’ve put just two and a half hours into finger boarding so it’s a decent time investment.  Plus....I really like it!

I tell myself that after I’ve got up the project I will take a good hard look at what I need to address to get up Tsunami. But first things first.

[tommytwotone]

I have a ton of weaknesses to work on like...truly horrible technique.

Meanwhile the thing I want to climb is 7C+ lime...

But first things first.

I'm definitely no expert in climbing lime sport but you may want to rethink what that "first thing" is.

[rginns]

STG - get back to 7A
MTG - 7B
LTG - 7C

Preferably all lancs problems

M - nowt
T - BUK
W - Fingerboard/pull up sesh, ab ripper x core session
T - BUK, good sesh, V5 flash, happy with that
F - Nowt
S - Nowt
S - 7k run... Mast race was cancelled annoyingly although conditions would have been atrocious,

Not a bad week, was supposed to have the race on Sunday which was why I had a pretty lazy week, but in the end it was cancelled... Good climbing week, feel like the fitness will come off I keep working at it.

Probably be back Thursday or Friday this week so will check it out properly.

Sorry Bradders, nipper's off school ill so I won't make it there today, Can't imagine it's anything but perfect yhough

[Nutty]

Weight: 66.7kg

STG: Train more regularly, climb outdoors more
MTG: Sub-90 min half marathon (March), sub 41min 10k and sub 20min 5k in training, 7A something
LTG: TBC


M: Board session.
T: Core and knee strengthening exercises. Planks/squats/leg raises/hip abductions etc.
W: Run. 8.5km.
T: Rest.
F: Run. 5km followed by 8x hill sprints.
S: Rest.
S: 20.7km at 4:40/km pace.

Long run was good, explored a bit so added a few more traffic-free miles to my road-avoiding route. Knee was ok. Hill sprints and strengthening exercises seem to have the niggle under control.

Enjoyed the first board session for a while. Need to do more. Think I will flip my training focus to bouldering once I've done the half marathon.

[Bradders]

Sorry Bradders, nipper's off school ill so I won't make it there today, Can't imagine it's anything but perfect yhough

No worries, didn't go myself in the end showers put me off. Going to go this evening instead.

Are you having lantern session there bradders? Might be interested in joining you. Never really fancied it after dark there on my own.

[Bradders]

Are you having lantern session there bradders? Might be interested in joining you. Never really fancied it after dark there on my own.

Sorry only just seen this, didn't go once again! Found out Zoo York was dry so went to try that instead. Would have been a lamp session though yeah I've always found it okay, just a little spooky 

[36chambers]

Also had brief goes on one of 36Cs problems on very small holds. Got nowhere!

This the one going up the left-hand side? You'll soon be launching off those holds once you've pulled on them a few times
