I am only human.
Did you get it by the name or by the moves?

Did anyone spot the elephant in the room - I thought I heard one?


Actually, I think that's a great video, its like a piece of anthropology.

[Nibile]

Tell me more, genuinely interested!

[andy popp]

I am going to reply.

ROFL!!

Actually, I didn't even read the name, and I wasn't analysing the moves. I just assumed it would be the right inspiration.

Finally made it to Simons, Lords and Hen stones today. I've been chomping at the bit to go for ages. Had a great day and sent nearly everything I aimed to. It also marked my 50th 7th grade problem sinced I moved up this summer!  (Yes, I'm counting, yes it is partly about the numbers).

[rosmat]

First ever one armer today!
 

Haven't even been training for it, just thought I'd give it a go. Never used to be able to get even close. Stronger at 36 than 18! YYFY!

Lucky you. Were you using the new guide? How did you find using it? 

[andy_e]

I heard that section was shit. By far the shittest part of the guide.

I was using Steve's Bk2 and yorkshiregrit, but one of my mates had the new guide. I didn't take that much notice of it (apart from the fact that it looks amazing and I'll buy it soon I promise and so should everyone who wants to climb in Yorkshire) . I knew what I wanted to do so didn't deviate from the plan.  I think Will Buck's video ()  was probably the most helpful thing for me, coupled with a OS map.

I'm guessing you went and did Galaxy, Whalebak, McNab, Hen Arete, anything else?

You should feel proud that you inspired such a trip. Lots of places were wet as the frost melted and didn't dry off, but your list is correct. A load of warm ups, some highball E3ish stuff and a couple more bird related masterpieces, one of which I need to go back and not fall off the top of 

I did Pixie Tits at Fairies Chest on Saturday too whilst I'm on the 'blowing my own trumpet' thread. That's a class line.

here's to 'man strength'

ps-do you too see a direct correlation between strength and back-hair-coverage?

[rosmat]

Couldn't say, but if there is I'll happily shave the back of my head.

Thats why I'm weak then

Very excited about a new weighted deadhang PB yesterday which with bodyweight included is a 4kg improvement on my PB in July.

I think further progress is possible so I'm psyched for my next session.

For the record its 35kg + 74kg bodyweight = 109kg with 3 reps of 10secs completed on 23mm rounded off wooden edge

[andy_e]

I heard a rumour you were wearing a knee-pad which means you can only claim 95kg for it. Sorry.

[Yoof]

Got my first F7c+ yesterday (it was indoors, but that doesn't matter as I'll explain)! It's one of those grades I never thought I'd do as I've always been a boulderer with shitdurance. The route in question was an endurance based excercise so a real challenge for me, yet I didn't have to spend AAGES working it. Basically, having done this climb says to me"you are no longer shit at routes" Well pleased.
