Which Ab did you target
1 Like
Still very much a one pack, so i figure singular is more accurate.
Work for today:
45mins running/burpees at a local field and exploring a few trails nearby.
Feels weird calling most of my sessions āworkā these days, as theyāre mostly fun.

Work for this morning:
Upper back warm up
Bench:
5 x 60kg
5 x 62.5kg
5 x 10 @ 50kg
JM press: some
Rear delt partial flys: some
Y-raises: some
Cable flies: some
Notes:
- Bench work is still crazy easy. Keep having Wendlers voice in my head saying āyouād be amazed how light we train, Daveā and stories of trainees going 4 years without ever resetting TMs and it paints a very pretty picture. A ālifetime bench in a yearā kind of picture, so iām going to do my best to trust the process and follow through.

Work for this morning:
1.5 hours bouldering
Really hard work this morning. Not sure if its the heat, the chest infection or having lots of carbs before climbing, but this was hard, hard work.

- Decided to see where i was at with pressing at the minute. Not impressed with the results. Will think on solutions for a low volume, high intensity program to tag on the start of this session regularly, canāt let press slip this bad.

Work for today:
Upper back warm up
Press:
3 x 1 @ 60kg
Bench (ss. Cable rows or pulldowns):
5 x 50kg
5 x 60kg
5 x 67.5kg
5 x 10 @ 50kg
Press:
5 x 5 @ 50kg
Cable raises: some
Notes:
- Getting a lot of issues with elbows that limits what back exercises i can sensibly do, which is fine because climbing takes care of a lot of volume there anyway.
- Iāve discovered that iām allergic to running. Knees had been terrible for weeks, so i cut running out , gave it time to heal and hey presto, knees feel fine. I feel like i learned this before somewhen.
- iām not even going to log ab work anymore unless i include it as part of a bigger workout. Because its boring and i forget most of the time anyway. Just assume iām doing various ab circuits 5 days a week, ish.
- Found @Ecchastang log the other day, which is an absolute gold mine for me in terms of how people who look awesome and climb well train. Guy was (and probably still is), an absolute beast and one of the main reasons i stuck around on T-Nation all those years ago.

This may well be an allergyā¦but on the off chance its notā¦do you tend to land more on your heel with your body behind your landing foot? So like an overstide?
I have (or had as now much better) pretty troublesome knees whilst running. But shortening my stride, landing midfoot to front foot, with a sligtly forward lean so landing foot is under body has pretty much solved the problem. Not running is also a very acceptable soloution too. Lol.

@kd13 Iāve never put any thought into how iām running beyond āone foot in front of the otherā, you might be right.

Fun for this evening:
2 hours bouldering.
Slow pace, nothing too challenging. New set on the comp wall, but unfortunately theyād turned the gravity up today so i just smashed through the easy ones whenever i could get near the wall.
