7th: 30 min core strength focussed yoga. Can now do low boat to reverse crow without feeling like my spine is going to crumple!

80kg....for the first time in my life. Now debating the eat more eat more eat more plan, that said, feel much stronger - had a strong boulder session yesterday. Hoping to stabilise around 79kg for now and then maybe see if I can drop some for spring.

I suspect I've put on 2kg just from eating more carbs (water retention, glycogen), 2kg fat probably and about 2kg muscle. That might be dreaming and it's just 6kg pork belly

7th
1 hour of gentle snowy running this evening with the local collection of ageing miscreants.

Annoyingly looks like it’s the right calf’s turn to throw it’s toys out of the pram, stoopid calves 😡

Day 7
Short but speedy walk around town, maybe 2km? Didn't get round to doing stretches or anything.

Hold a plank for 1 min and 10 sec.
Repeat.

I'm really bad at planks. Aiming to get up to 2 x 2 min by end of Jan

Waking up this morning my back, shoulders, and abs tell me I've also been getting a significant workout lifting my wife in/out of bed/wheelchair multiple times a day over the last few days.

[iain]

Bloody hell Andy, missed what had happened. All the best to you and yours.

8th. Planned to go to Ratho as our monthly pass auto-restarted in Jan after a 6mo pause. Couldn't get booked in due to their supremely glitchy booking system.

Went to TCA Propstore instead, tried to have na AnCap session on the short (ideal length) routes, but the routes are just not set right for it - probably the panels are just too steep, so when it gets hard enough to be anaerobic, it's very technique dependent / droppble.

Noticed some early signs of aggravated brachialis (font elbow / deep bicep niggle), maybe too much intensity and not enough rest so I'll back off the 2 per week ancap until that beds down. Oh, this isn't power club.....

Erm: 2.5 hours climbing, 30 mins gym. Going winter climbing tomorrow, so might have an actual day off on Monday and Maybe Tuesday so as to not overdo it. S'pose I could do a short run or something.

Can I just check for reference if shagging counts towards my 30 mins

Answered in the inaugural Sharkathon thread interesting to see that walking didn’t count back then and anyone who failed to do every day got puntered.

Excellent news

Day 8 - 20 minute VERY quick run (for me!) benchmarking for a training plan followed by 15 minutes of yoga. Still feeling rough, may need to redo the benchmark once well!

[Fiend]

Day 8 - 10 minute VERY boring rowing machine warmup followed by 60 minutes of monotonous V0-2 bouldering. May add some stretching 

(Back to ultra-boring jug pulls, albeit with a few lurchy / awkward jugpulls thrown in. Which means that my knee is a bit tender and my elbow is notably more sore from doing a bunch of V2s in the warm now, than it was doing a bunch of V4s in the cold 6 weeks ago. FFS.)

Despite marathon efforts earlier I did some real training today

3 x 5 weighted pullups with 20kgs added. PB but last rep on the last set was not as clean as I'd like.

8 x 10 second hangs on the 20mm edge, 28kgs added weight

Some flexibility business etc

Ta. Nice to see some results from training innit.

8th
A reasonable length (more than 30 mins less than 60) brisk walk in challenging conditions this morning. Right calf is not happy…

[Duma]

You need to get back on the 400 Nik
