Training: Falling! (and more)

Some jumps taken in Collegats last weekend. Last week I finally got my hands on Dave MacLeods book 9 out of 10 climbers make the same mistake. I watched most videos and read most articles from the strong and analytic Mr MacLeod and I think he is the best writing climber there is out there. [...]

Training: January sum-up

Strong man Urban Dufva hiking my project, Discordia. Photo: Pär Lindholm Plenty of work, training and climbing has kept me from writing about how my little climbing-training-experiment is going. To sum it up - just great! My finger injury seem to finally have sorted itself out (knock on wood!) and I can now go almost [...]

Week 10 – finger worries

Strange week of hurting finger and finally really good days of rock. Feeling stronger and more energetic, good stuff! Again the amount of quality sleep I get and stress level really have clear effect. A lot of work this week but managed to keep stress under control. Actually miss the feeling of being destroyed by [...]

Thursdays training was hard and not having a proper rest day before the weekend took away any chance of [...]

Week 6 – Margalef and work…

Week 5 – energy!

The week started by a second climbing day in Margalef, then back home for work and two days of training and then a weekend of climbing. In total, 3 days on rock and 2 days of plastic. This week was the first that I felt that I started to recover between training sessions. Very good [...]

Week 1 & 2 – Getting into training

After roughly 10 years of climbing I've decided to try something new - training for climbing! I must say it feels really fun as well as quite odd to go indoors and pull on plastic when I live right in the heart of probably the best area for climbing on earth with only minutes to [...]
