Its been a while since I posted
Its been a while since I posted as me and the mrs had twins 4 months ago. ... I had decided to stop chatting and being a social climber and get down to business of improving.
I've had major DOMS all over since the end of last week, had one rest day. Steep board session has killed me but must mean it's a massive weakness. For the record this morning I have DOM's in my Forearms, Biceps, Delts, Traps, Lower Back, Arse, Quads and Hams...! Without realising, I've had 5 days "on", I'm a broken man this morning. Had to fight hard to climb at Malham on Saturday as I knew I'd get cramp/powered out even before I started climbing that day due to tight forearms. Trying to use a tennis ball to massage but making no difference so far.
Nik - I'm amazed you can do consecutive days of weighted BM sessions (and then go and smash a bouldering circuit). Lopez recommends more than 24hrs rest after to capitalise on the gains - although you have phenomenal finger strength anyway.
Seriously overdoing it. Remember that its the rest period when you actually get stronger. Without resting you are just digging a deeper and deeper hole to get out of. If you push to far you'll end up with all sorts of overuse issues.
What does Under the Gate do?
Next week it'll all be different and I'll be back in the gimp suit...
