Bradders, sounds like an amazing day to cap a great week. What a first 8A too. Coops, must have been chilly if you’re wearing a vest!
STG - 180° shoulder elevation. Outdoor climbing soon.
MTG - 7a by the end of 2017
LTG - tbc
M - Stretches. Shoulder strengthening (through range rotator cuff, scapular muscles, deltoid).
T - Fingerboard. Hung the 19mm edges briefly.
W - Stretches, strengthening
T - Westway Bouldering to ~V2. Felt good on vertical stuff, not so much on anything over 15°.
F - Stretches, strengthening.
S - Westway with The Economist. Lead routes to ~6a.
S - Westway with the lad and his friend. Felt pretty beaten so not climbing.
Good progress this week. Elevation now comfortably 175°, shoulder feels stable (but not strong). Doing enough to feel I’m training as well as rehab.ing. Sunday looked glorious, he said wistfully, but I have a short trip to Spain coming up and should get some real climbing done soon.
