3.12.7

i believe i've ushered in some serious weeks off from climbing with today's sub-mediocrity. Haven't actually succumbed to any serious new injuries (thank Heaven), but i've been stagnant for a while now. Keep taking a day or two off in between sessions thinking eventually i'll see another positive slope; but it ain't happening. Then today i glopped off of a v3 i've been projecting for several weeks, fell 4 or 5 times on the starting moves of a v2 i flashed a few days ago, got shut down on another v3 i've tried a few times, and finished the session off by falling off of a v1. The tendonitis in my right bicep is mostly gone, but has moved to my left arm instead. i think i'm gonna quit beating myself up for 3 or 4 weeks, and concentrate on getting my whole body strong again in the irongym. That might even leave me enough time to start up running and riding again. This kind of intense stagnation tends to break me and send me into self-destruction mode. i'm going to make some effort to avoid that this time 'round. Suggestions for a good workout?

The "West Side for Skinny Bastards"(WS4SB)is a good place to start.
