Set a few PB's like one arming the deep pockets (inexplicably, since I never train or climb on pockets), weak arm half crimp the low rung with 6kg in t'other hand, and some dirty back two action. Surprising results. I should use my hangboard more.I mean if you don’t fingerboard much and can one arm hang the bottom rung +6kg (for how long?), unless you’re trying to climb 8B this year your fingers are probably plenty strong and you’re already fingerboarding enough!Quite (perhaps unless he's 4ft tall)

A fair few 8B climbers would struggle to do this.
Always hard to know where one's climbing bottle necks lie.

Picked up au pair from the airport
Fri - train up to froggatt, got long john’s just as started spitting which felt 6a for a short arse
I went to uni in Leicester, theres some good esoteric trad around there but the bouldering is probably better.
That said I spent a lot of time at Slawstons which is an unbelievably good venue for training trad fitness!
