Jeez Will, are you the next Malc? 

Oh yes 

Will could be the next Malc, if he knew how to train, and did some!


Anyway, YYFY! 

I really surprised myself today by getting a Fr7c+ at Dumbuck! I've been doing practically no sport climbing recently, and not a lot of bouldering. My previous hardest route was Fr7b+, so I'm fully stoked!

Suddenly Fr8a seems like a more reasonable proposition.  Time for a celebratory

Nice work Neil.

We're coming out to Font in November - do you have any tips on some training I can do to stop the dreaded "font-elbow"?

Sorry for the Hi-Jack. In fact, probs best to PM me.

[neil h]

push ups, and lots of them

Shit Slackers, what is UKB going to to without its own personal IT support helpline if you're working hard in a new job and can't access / post on here??

I concur with press-up advice, has also worked for me. Push up to straight arms to give the forearms a good stretch.

My thoughts exactly. Well done though mate.

I know this is still a bit off topic, but how fast do you do the press ups?

Good Q, and taking it off to ANOTHER thread, my arms/shoulders were fucked yesterday after doing their first concerted load of pressups for a good few years. I blame this for my general crapness on Green Traverse 

[Jaspersharpe]

No it's cos you're not using your heels.

Did you get that job as Spokesperson For Raising Awareness About Open Source Operating Systems?

Hope they treat you right

[slackline]

I do take my role as UKB Tech support and FOSS advocate very seriously and will endeavour to keep abreast of the duties they entail.

Hopefully though there'll just be a drop off in the amount of shit I post which can't be that bad a thing!

[rginns]

tonight I crushed 3 of my 17 aims this year ! Ok so two were easy problems, but I've been wanting Pickpockets scalp for a while, and it feels awesome! 
No big numbers or owt, but it's great when you feel like you're climbing well!!
