Mini Top 5



Tonight was a really good plastic pulling/perseverance training night. I read THIS post about "1-6-3" when training. It's seems pretty true. One our of ten days of workouts will be fucking amazing. Six of them, nothing special. And three are the days everything is hard as shit and you feel weak. It's something interesting to think about.

Anyways, my goal to climb everything in the cave just got a major push in advancement, thanks to Chris Bloch. I showed up late for a session, only knowing I wanted to do the black ten in the cave. As I walked up to the gym, seeing his van got me psyched, knowing I'd be able to climb with someone else. And I actually enjoyed warming up on the North Boulder set, despite having been shut down completely last time I tried the problems.

We stepped into the cave and I put the problem down...first try of the night. Muscle memory at it's finest. Not wanting to end the session, Chris got me psyched on this white eight (if you watched the video, it's #5) with a dyno that gets you close to horizontal. A couple of times I supermaned out and feel face first onto the mat. One of the falls shot me back 4ft. out of the cave face down. It was so rad.

The moral of this post is: perseverance pays off
and...
You gotta bring the fire. Bring the passion.

THANKS FOR READING!
