ufff

Off to K with T..all new Problems to play on :-D Strange session.. already felt pumped after the warm up even though one just had a 2 day rest. Could feel the core workout from yesterday as well. Managed to do nearly all red problems as well as 1 black...all in all 24 problems. If I would have rested a bit longer in between problems would have managed at least 3/4 problems more..bad pump. Again some really fun problems (as well as some really bad..). Feels like the finger starts hurting around the 18 mark of problems. Off to Germany now with Zoe ..we will see if I will be climbing on Tuesday, might rest the finger until Thursday as the week after it's time to change from Volume to a bit harder..

A bit easier

A bit of a lighter session with T and E! Started off with doing 2x 8 problems that were red, then went over to doing some singles.. red and black as well as working on some more... felt ok but in the end painful again in the left finger. Happy with some of the problems done and doing some moves.. Fun. Even more fun to see E putting in some effort...think he has the power for more if he could get more movement training in.

more Volume

this time went to K with T...ended up doing ca. 20 problems inc. 2/3 black problems and most red problems. Around 11 in 60 minutes. Went through all the angles, slab to roof. Actually fun and seems like the pump is getting better.

close to the edge

of killing one finger it seems... rest two days now and see how it feels. Did ca. 15 Problems today again... all but one red and one black flash. Next session needs to be a more relaxed one for my fingers, so no trying black or white problems (unless finger feels up for it).

Oh my God

Went to K2 for some more Volume with T...and was met with a s* load of people. Don't think I have seen that many people there before-crazy. Made it a bit hectic and stressful with such a crowd. That and that I somehow felt bad when I got there. Ended up with around 15 problems as planned.. but it was a fight!! Best effort on doing a grey that we think is somewhere between black/white.. otherwise some of the gradings upstairs could be debated, specially compared to each other. Downstairs was different again.. everything felt hard - even the red problems! Oh gosh golly Thursday will be interesting :-D

K2

together with T. Upstairs.. not much marked problemwise due to the comp but actually liked that... if it were up to me then I would leave it that way! Fun!
Ended up doing 18 problems in the range of blue to black.. maybe 4 black if we were to count it that way.. worked on some more that felt black/white..
Good tempo in the 1st hour, but then the last 30-40 min had a few longer breaks. A lot of really fun problems we thought :-D

Better

today then before even though I had less sleep and slight pain in one finger. The day ended with 4 black, 11 red and 3 blue problems... most done in 1 hour before I got to trying black problems.. Finished after 1.5 hours..

Trails

Felt hard again today..still missing endurance as well as that little bit of something...strength wise. Also still don't feel 100% yet. Worked on 2 white problems, did 2 new black problems (worked 5 more), 7 red problems and 3 blue... actually thinking of 4x4 sometimes a week...just need to find the right problems to do... we will see.

Long

time since last time it felt like. Been sick for a week now with fever to bad stomach... Actually felt ok in the start but noticed that strength was not really there. Plan was to do more volume..ended up with 3 black (1flash, 1 dayflash and 1 repeat) as well as 8 or 9 red problems and 4 blue problems...before lack of power and sore skin set in. Guess it will take around 1 week before gaining some strength again so we will see.. Kudos to T who looked really strong making easy work of his first white problem of the year!
