What -  doing nothing on T,F & S? In my defence I had parents visiting from Friday night to this morning, so needed to get house in order on Thursday and spend some time with them.

Focussing on LTG will come when I have a working thumb again. I tried climbing without using it, but got too annoyed, focussing on other things for now.

Hey you don't need to give any reason, it was nothing but a joke! Anyway I was referring to all the running and cycling.
Hope your thumb heals soon. You can do lots to get strong even with a dodgy thumb though.

Yeah I know about strength, but given limited time I tend to focus on one thing at a time! Looks like I might be doing 65mile Etape Royale soon, and probably a fell run later in the month. Will get back on strength training probably when it gets dark and wet.

At least I'm pretty much off the booze, down to under one unit a week on average!

I've never cut the grass at our current house, lived here 20 months and that's why I don't climb outside. I can't find my way out of the garden

Tu: Fingerboard session on my CRUSHER (tm) mobile fingerboard.. good - weird hanging on a wobbly suspended by cord board though! Tested some new muscles on different (from a BM) holds..

Which of their mobile fingerboards was it Tom ?

It was the mission: http://crusherholds.co.uk/crusher-mission-portable-hangboard-fingerboard

Monday: Crossfit - heavy kettlebell session
Tuesday: Crossfit - heavy overhead squats session
Wednesday: Heavy (90 min) hangboard session - max hangs, assisted one arms and repeaters.
Thursday: Morning surf (paddle, really, thanks to quite a significant amount of swell) followed by exhausted PM climb.
FRiday: Short, intense hangboard session. Drinking.
Saturday: Hangover
Sunday: Poor day out bouldering in the heat followed by some max hangs.

Not a great week. 8A in 2016 seems out of my grasp given the nascent end of winter  :wavecry:

Two weeks again:

Mon: 4x4s
Tue: Weighted repeaters
Wed: Techy fingery stuff on the TCA 20deg woody
Thu: Swim
Fri: First session on new woody in the garage. Proper job!
Sat: Drive to Cornwall with family.
Sun: Swimming in the sea. Lots of cake and ice cream.

Mon: Tides weren't ideal but managed to get to Godrevy for an early morning bash with family in tow. Cave was sadly damp (well, everything was damp) but had an ace time pootling around doing easy stuff in the gullies.
Tue: Swim in the sea. Dead calm, clear water - stunning.
Wed: TCA, woody again I think.
Thu: Weighted repeaters.
Fri: Home woody session. Bit knackered from the week but felt worked by the end, particularly core.
Sat: Run 6km.
Sun: Max hangs.

Decent couple of weeks. Work still mental so not really got any time to get out, but hoping to make the most of the new garage board.

STG: Tick some things in Magic Wood
MTG: Heal myself and get solid at 7B
LTG: 8A

M: Empire Crag above Llandudno. Great fun short bouldery jugfests. Flashed 6c, on sighted 7a, 7a+ 1st RP.

F
S: Got to Magic Wood half an hour before dark. Went and tried Enterprise, got it in the dark with a lot of screaming. Sweaty and humid conditions...
S: First full day in the wood. Did the classic highball Blue sky of mine 6A+, then went and did Blindflug 7A. Had to do weird move to reach past the dirt crimps but was happy when it went. O/Sed a 6C as a mate was trying Intermezzo. Fingers too bad to try Dinos... Failed on James Bong before going and getting Hob den Ausch 7A. Very good climbing with a Fontesque top out. Shame the crux was not dabbing the start. Rain stopped play.

Good start to Magic Wood though raining now so might have a couple of enforced rest days. Finger limits what I can do and can hurt a fair bit after a big try. But no lasting damage.
Ian(?), you still in magic? I'm in the black VW t4, come say hi if you're at a loose end. And do Protektor if you get a chance, it's ace!

Duma, I think you've got the wrong Cooper! Just left the wood today, got Protektor yesterday though. Such a sick line. Hope you have a good trip!
