REST!+

After climbing the last 4 days and being on the road to multiple injuries that building up in my right arm, its time to take a well deserved week off of climbing. Updates: went to pilot on saturday, did the bottom of Blind Prophet with little trouble, very cool moves, doable. Led Devil in the White House with 2 hangs because I didn't feel like pushing for an onsight. Went back to the Corridor today with Luke and things were kind of grim. After 4 days of climbing I found that much of my strength was absent today as I struggled on the v4 that I essentially flashed with almost no effort last week. That was a low point. Things turned around when I started working on a prow feature at the far end of the corridor. I dont know what it is a called, but it is pretty groovy and will be a nice challenge to overcome when I am at full strength and injury free soon. I am definitely ready to start training for sport climbing and to dial back my bouldering. It'll be a nice change of pace and hopefully my current right arm weaknesses will vanish never to return again. So, the plan is a week off of climbing and then a week of light climbing and rehab exercises with a lot of icing and heat on my right arm. If the next two weeks go well, I'll be ready to start my power endurance training for a few weeks and be on my way to gaining some level of fitness required for my year end goal of 5.13 sport climbing.
