Dec 2022

 1 Dec

Just regular climbing. I went again with my Thomas, so no special training. Just regular climbs (backlocking on 14 Dec, so I don't remember how I did exactly). I did manage to get an orange that I thought was tough on an overhang and I think I hurt my wrists

7 Dec

Regular climbing again with Thomas. I did more oranges, I believe I finished all of them off in the gym (modulo 1 or 2). I remember trying a bunch of reds, but I didn't get a single one, they're just that much more difficult

SE

3 rnds:

5 squats (76.5kg)

5 dips (BW+7.5kg)

3 turkish getups (18.5kg)

Notes: week long break because of finals and Kendra visiting. Pleasantly surprised at my performance despite the last hangboarding session being over 2 weeks ago. The SE weights are increasing only slightly. I could go more, but there's no reason to bother with that

18 Dec -- Limit Bouldering

30 min warmup. -> hardish bouldering --> limit bouldeirng

I chose one hard orange which is just a vertical pinch strip. Also made a project on the spray wall. It doesn't seem as bad as the last one (which was changed), but it's still going to take a while. Feet on wooden nubs mostly
+
3 front levers
5 reverse wrist rolls (the thing with a stick and a rope) (3kg). 5 up and down

22 Dec -- Campus Board #1

30 min warmup -> hard bouldering 

Tried the same pinch line orange, not as much luck as last time, but not bad. Consistantly got to the same spot, 1 move prior to my best attempt last time. Flashed a red as well, was thinking it would be harder.

_____________________ 36/48

NOTES: Not as good as last time In October, but not a complete regression. I felt the pain in my wrists during the warmup, particularly during a slopey green one. This is more of a problem that when I previously felt it. Gotta be careful. No pain from the campusing at all though.

SE

3 rnds:

5 squats (79kg)

5 dips (BW+10kg)

3 turkish getups (20kg)

Notes: Day before Christmas, tomorrow will be cloased, but the next few days will be hot, so I had to squeeze this in. Pretty bad with the left hand pinches, but I was last time as well and I got better. I'm liking the individual hand training here. Hopefully I'll be strong enough one day to do one-armed hangs for all the regular stuff (edges, pockets, etc.)

29 Dec -- Campus Board #2

30 min warmup -> hard bouldering 

Again tried the same orange pinch line. Didn't get any further.

NOTES: Perfect! The first time I've ever completed this exercise perfectly. I guess the next step is to add another rung
