Once again i'm a day late; only this time i had a better excuse. I got the matriarchal blessing to climb at the gym on Tues (2 days ago), and i took it. So last night i was a little baked--and i got off work 3.5 hours after i was scheduled to get off, and just honestly didn't feel like hangboarding in the dark in 6 degrees. But really very good, and very encouraging sessions both climbing and hangboarding today; so i feel ok about bumping it back yet another day.
Warmup Jug: -15: Same same.
Large Open Hand:
1: -12.5: This was a 2.5# increase. Burned at the end.
2: -2.5: Again, up 2.5#. Hard, but no fail.
F3,4 Pocket:
1: -40: This was a 5# bump. Very hard at the end. no fail.
2: -30: Again, 5# bump. Very hard, but dug deep and no fail.
SemiClosed Crimp:
1: -17.5: This was a 2.5# increase. Very hard. No fail.
2: -7.5: Pretty hard, but no fail. Up 2.5#. :)
F2,3,4 Pocket:
1: -12.5: Hard at the end. Kept these the same.
2: -2.5: Incredibly, no fail. Very mental. :)
Wide Pinch:
1: -55: No fail(ish), which is an improvement. I mighta been dripping off the hold as my timer chimed on the last rep.
2: -45: Bleh! Failed really on the last 4 reps at least partially. Felt like i couldn't get set properly on the holds. Really didn't feel weak; just felt so cold my fingertips were glassy and i couldn't feel.
Sloper:
1: -5: Very hard. Failed last second of last rep.
2: BW: :) Not quite sure what made me think i could do this after the set before, but i didn't fail. Guess i should find out what my pin weighs, cuz that's the increase. Hard. Heh heh!
Narrow Pinch:
1: -82.5: 2.5# up! Whew! No fail :)
2: -72.5: Ha!! Massive fail, but last rep only. That's an increase. :))
That's an improvement, or frank weight increase on 6 of 8 grips. That's very satisfying. Very good workout. I'm getting a li'l amped to see if i can make some real climbing gains this season. Was 200.0 lbs fully clothed this morning (without a harness)-- so up a pound from last sesh, and still got some gains. That's real nice.
