BRIEFING AND TESTS

Today I had the last session of the year. To be honest, the last two sessions: a brief one at lunchtime, for tests, that resulted in a quick burn of very hard maximal efforts, that coupled with the day spent under the roof, took alot from me, so that this evening I was very tired.
Anyway, I couldn't do again the two one armers on the 2 cm edge, despite being able to do them past saturday at the end of the session, but I was feeling a bit heavy on big muscles. I tried to deadhang 1 cm one handed, and was really there, especially with right hand. I could already take the tick for that, but will wait. Then I tried the same on 2 cm and went up to 12 kilos at the waistbelt. Cool.
So tonite I was tired and didn't do much, but almost sent a difficult problem that felt impossible one month ago.
I will go and visit some friends for new year's eve, and incidentally they live very close to one of my (many) projects. Obviously, the weather will be bad, and it could rain, but am confident to try and play my chances. You don't know until you go.
Holy shit this was so boring to type, I can't imagine how boring it must be to read it...

Guys! Lore has impressed me very much on the boulder problem tonight, double fully lock off, despite do it dynamic.. crazyyyy!! happy biceps to you! very impressive... this is the result of weeks of serious training on climbing tools and of a right climbing program fit for him, I really hope he will do his project during this recovery period.. c'mon lore!

Sounds like you are getting very strong for the New Year Lore!

Good luck with your projects and I am sure you won't be needing it after reading through your recent feats of strength!

I will have to increase the training if me and Tom are to come over and not completely embarass ourselves ;)
