Odd one today. First i weighed in this morning at 194.8#.  That's the first time in many, many moons i've cracked 195.

I'm trying out a new diet plan which i've come to call "not eating so friggin' much", and it's working like crazy!

Slated to do campus #2 tomorrow, but i wanted to get a workout in. Went in thinking i'd do a tabata with maybe just a pinch of climbing-- Kinda just to keep the mitts warm, you know. Got to the wall, and some friendlies were working a project, and i got egged into trying it. Flashed it pretty easily (but to be fair, it wasn't a hard problem), and it felt--- good.

So i threw down 10 mins of ARCing without chalk, which is kinda paradigmatic for me, as i generally chalk up about every single move. Then i sent the problem i was using the first 3 moves of yesterday for a "limit problem". I expect it was not a limit problem after all.

Funny how a problem can be super hard one day, then something clicks and it's just right there in front of you.

Anyhow, then i went and did the tabata: Pullups (19 & 13), SLRs (18 &14), Dips (20 & 15), and Decline crunches (21 & 17ish). This was a definite improvement...gettin a li'l easier. And i totally dig finishing a workout in 4 mins. Highly recommend.

So i've scrapped the idea of campusing tomorrow--i'll do it thursday. It'll work out better anyway. There's a bouldering comp thurs, and that'll make a very nice warmup. And i can get the kids in on it. :)
