Power Club
Training continues at a pace, high levels of intensity.
Monday - desperately needed a rest from pulling so did bench up to 70kgs 5x5, OHP 40kgs 3 sets of 5, Squats up to 80kgs for 5 twice. Squats are proving good knee rehab. Some other general accessories.
Tuesday rest day
Wednesday - Indoor session. Making myself do Indoor problems is doing great for restoring my confidence trying insecure moves at the top of the wall! I'm glad that's paying off, lots of hard pulling that day. Finger boarded, 1 armed with assistance. Got myself to doing 7-8 seconds with 10kgs taken off on the left and 8kgs taken off on the right, did six sets per arm.
Thursday - Targeted Bicep Work, couldn't get to the wall so isolation curls with 18kgs for sets of 5 per arm, regular and hammer curls, 3 sets each.
Friday - Again couldn't get out, Weighted Pullups 27kgs for 3 sets of 5, V-pullups for 3 sets of 8. Fingerboarded with two hands, 35kgs for 10, 10, 10, 8, 8, 7.
Saturday - took some people to Burbage South as they're brand new to climbing. Had a lovely day, repeated loads of easier stuff. Investigated Dog's Arse LH at 7A, couldn't do the first move but could pull on and slap for it, second move to top was fine. Incidentally I folded my pad in half and did it from the sit, suspect a few vids online are pad stacking but I dunno if there is a specific start hold? Anyway off one pad it didn't go.
House Party/BBQ till 5am in the evening with the goths. Sick night.
Sunday - Two hour walk in the morning around Damflask. Indoor session, not too hard but loving the return of confidence on moves with less than ideal feet for me generally. Felt a bit worse for wear so just went and did a bench session, 70kgs 3 sets of 5, and a few light weight sets for loads of reps just to get a burn in. OHP same, just the bar for 3 sets of 10
Too hot to climb really hard on circuits but feeling good and confident, looking forward to the future, ready to keep pushing myself!
