There are approximately three (3) weeks left in 2021. With this in mind, I'm finna make results happen.
12/14: Since last update, NWB wise not much new to report besides unlocking exit beta on Dirty Ernie’s Traverse (aka DErT)~ training has been focused albeit not the volume I’d prefer, but I’m feeling rested, strong, and gains are being made. 30mm one arm hangs, back to being able to do one arm pull ups and I made a trip out to Catoctin and sent No Expectations V8 !!! Feels bittersweet to be done with this beautiful cliff band. Perhaps time to look for my own addition in that sector? Linking DErT V10 and a climb at Cunningham Falls Never Let Me Go V8 are big on my mind at present.
Here’s send footage of No Expectation and best go yet on Don’t Let Me Go:
11/24: Yesterday marked 1 year anniversary of my first V10 , to celebrate (in unexpected fashion) I sent Dirty Ernies Revenge! Conditions were surprisingly good... Thomas met me at Northwest Branch for a short session together at Nice Slot boulder; he had to leave early so I decided to go take a look and see how DE felt down by the river... I improbably moved a HUGE log that'd drifted in the way of the wall. Everything clicked... footwork was precise, all the holds felt 10% larger, beta felt successively more solid each go til it got DONE. Memorable, focused, meaningful send.
11/19: @ EarthTreks Columbia x10 min ARC on splash board, 30 min bouldering flashed 7, sent 7 second go (one from last session) got close on cool volumes V8, V10 project taken down :(, figured out Tension Board ™ app connectivity~ found new V10 project :), did campus board (1/4/6, coordination drills x3 reps on criss cross/alternate hands, ladders, evens alternating ladders), 7/3 x1min 20mm crimp with 35lbs added weight on, core/lower back work, HIT kettlebell drill (8reps each leg), TRX drills
11/15: @ EarthTreks Columbia x10 min ARC on splash board, 30 min bouldering including new V10 project and V7 in a session (1st since way back), campus board (1/4/6, coordination drills x3 reps on criss cross/alternate hands, ladders, match ladders), x4 7/3 min on slope, crimp, pinch, 20mm crimp with 35lbs added weight on, core/lower back work, HIT kettlebell drill (8reps each leg); body stats: 70kg/153lbs 182.88cm/6’0
11/14: Seam Nightmares V6 @ NWBranch
Goal is minimum two sessions per week for a total of 14. This will be good primer for '22, and hopefully will bear a few more gems this year.
Be well,
Nicholas
