Went to the london bridge bouldering wall last night.
This trip should serve as a reasonable benchmark to judge my progress by.
It seems that over the last 2 weeks i have gained enough fitness so that my hands dont simply uncurl from jugs after a few problems and I can get a proper pump. But that is about it.
It seems I do better at the technical problems than the power ones (which is not surprising as i am weak as a puppy). I need to work on the power problems.
For reference sake, I was able to do technical V3's pretty much first go, but was unable to do any power V3's at all. I will see how the fingerboard\pullup training helps this.
I reckon I need to be able to boulder v7\8 to be able to do an 8a so a very long way to go indeed.
It was a fun trip though!
Let me re-iterate; this blog is very much for my own reference and motivation. I reserve all rights to make this blog as dull as dishwater, and am under no illusions that the info here is of any interest to anyone but me :)
