Leavittation. Or hard to see who it is, but looks like it might be Lovettation.

I think Dawes used that technique on the Quarryman.

 :lol:   Could well be Lovettation,several Lancashire climbers have been known to use this dark art. Although judging by the the man pictured,i reckon he's using that blackest of magics, (Darwen)Weasel Power....

He's not got his top off - definitely not Lovatt.

Brilliant

If you are doing that exercise then you will have transcended the need to climb

I don't think doing it will make him a better climber. It's fucked up his left shoulder something rotten.
