Liam's Training Diary

So my training log has laxed….

I’m currently thinking about how i can keep this site updated without having to directly replicate what I write down on my daily basis so here is a brief overview of what I have and am doing now

Climbing

I recently reset my Moonboard and have a number of problems ranging from 60% through to 150% of my max.

I am doing sets of about 3-4 attempts on each problem

I also have added 2 circuits onto our 20 degree wall in an effort to build a little more movement into my climbing and some power endurance. this seems to be working nicely.

Recently I have been campusing and focusing less on finger strength due to a small niggle in my left ring finger which has lead to a small issue in my middle finger.

These are coming right ow with the issue no longer affecting my climbing however I have found a distinct lack of strength in the now healed ring finger. So I have begun another round of finger strength training on my beast maker and new home made finger system.

This will consist of 2 – 3 finger session a week 1 of them being dead hangs and 1 arm pullups on small holds that are far above what I can currently hold and only achieved by taking weight off through a pulley system

The other session will consist of repeaters and encores over about 8 different grips

Gym

My quest to get back to my former levels of strength of last summer at my now 11 kg lighter frame is going well.  Most recently I am back to 40 kg dumbells @ 8 reps in each arm flat and decline benche, only 2.5 kg off where i was a year ago

My back workouts are going well and exceeding everything i was doing this time last year including 47.5 1 arm rows @ 10 reps

I am also attempting to up my running to hit my 3 runs a week with my bench mark of 5 x 3min intervals @ 12k an hour and then finishing of 5 k. Currently I am at a 3 interval mark and only able to run out 4k haha

I am currently re-evaluating how i will train for the next 6 weeks with Aleshia so watch this space and hopefully I’ll have thought of a way to update this diary better too
