if only food & beer wasn't so tasty
Shoulder is a mess really. No sign of improvement even after a good week off. I'm pretty sure that this is an impingement,
If are down the Foundry tomorrow evening I can show you the ones that I find work best

A bit surprised to discover last week that I can't do a pull-up (on a bar) so this is a new STG. As the training focus for the next few months is about getting stronger I also need to think of some bouldering ST and MT goals. What is realistic in, say, six months? I'm an elderly tradder who has never bouldered much, has very weak arms and shoulders, OK finger strength, is good at 3D stuff, hopeless at anything steep. Previous best effort is probably V4 (Bachar Cracker - so more like a trad. route) many years ago, currently managing what The Arch call V3 in about one session. I can manage two or three short sessions a week, more would probably break me at present but I should tolerate more training by the end of the winter. I have good wood and plastic facilities locally. Rock is a bit harder to get to. Trip(s) to Font. booked and planned over the next few months.
