Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 23 January 2012. Off again on another weekend with perfect grit weather! Get in, The plan was to go Baslow and hit up the easy routes to solo and then have a little session at Flat World and The Eagle Stone. Driving over it was freezing, first day this year i've had to scrape ice off the windscreen, conditions were set to be perfect. So that was a week ago. And i've decided to complete the post and update people with my injury and rehab. I was...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Thursday, 18 August 2011. So today was my first day off since last Thursday. Been working my arse off, but it will all be worth it when i get a van! After last Thursday being a wash out and only managing an indoor session i really keen to get out and get on some real rock. I had arranged with Helen to take her over to North Wales to go do some multi-pitch as she had never done any before. Next up on the list was Skylon a HS but it looked nice and clea...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 1 September 2014. On the blog again. So seems like reading my last post when I promised I would be posting more i must have been lying. What have a been doing? Well, turns out to be an awful lot. After the winter and getting to this level i knew that the focus would have to shift this year and more time spent in the hills on big mountain crags and sea cliffs getting some finalising routes in before i went for MIA training which i finally compl...

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 12 September 2011. Lazy but also busy. I get so lazy filling this thing in sometimes. I think of something brilliant to write but then when it comes to it i can never be arsed. To sum things up though i've been climbing loads, found my psyche with a week long trip to Font booked for November and 10 days sport climbing in Spain in December i need to get strong and fit.

Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Saturday, 19 May 2012. After a cracking session at Longridge last week the psyche had returned to boulder. Finding myself with some time off me and Helen decided on a four day trip up to Northumberland, I'd always heard good reports about the place but just never found myself the time or the weather to get up there. This was to be the weekend though! Waking up Saturday to glorious sunshine and clear blue skies, psyched! Deffo one for the DFBWGC! All i...

http://youngysblog.blogspot.com/2012/05/taking-chance.html
Keeping you upto date with the crushings of a punter! Monday, 7 May 2012. Having spent the majority of time indoors still and not really touching real rock i was keen to get back out and the forecast for the bank holiday weekend was good but there was me on another kayaking course! As suspected he said it's a bit greasy and thinks its only just dried out. A quick MTFU self talk and i find myself in the same situation but this time a slight alteration of the body and BOOM!

Robot Climbing: March 2010
http://robotclimbing.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Training Charts and Log. Wednesday, March 24, 2010. That fall I spent my first weekends at Rumney. I did routes like Technosurfing and Whip Tide, and got incredibly shut down on Tsunami, Aquarius, and Suburban. All of this took place in the shadow of this:. Around this time I began seriously training for climbing. At first the training had a moderate effect on my climbing. Finally in the last 8 months or so I feel like I've found the training formula that allows me to climb at my best. Campus board power...
