Took a trip into London to climb with a coach today, awesome day, really enjoyed it. I have fucked my shoulder though, hopefully it heals quickly.

Very careful choosing climbs and when to push hard today, shoulder is still pretty painful.

Work for yesterday:
Bench (W1):
5 x 5 @ 77.5kg
Machine incline press: some
Deficit press ups: some
Tricep pushdowns: some
Notes:
- Lots of work arounds in this one. Shoulder felt fine with pressing, but terrible for every triceps exercise that i usually use, so lots of experimenting to find one that works.
- Knee was painful just to walk, so was an absolute no go for squatting.
- Bench felt a bit worse than normal with sore biceps and back. Not a major issue, just something to remember.

Straight into:
Bench:
2 x 5 @ 80kg
Incline machine press: some
Pec dec: some
Notes:
- Pretty good climbing session, far bit of trying hard. Although my gym seems to have decided to crush everyones egos by sandbagging (nearly) everything in sight.
- Quick bench session straight after. Was feeling super fatigued and all working sets felt terrible. Cut it short after 2 sets because it was feeling terrible and just did more pump work.

Run before work
May do another after work, depending on soreness and weather.
I have been training, but not logging since Christmas, however its proving harder to keep consistent without a record.
Long term (fully aware this is about the 3000th long term plan iāve made in this log), i think the aim is to do 2 lifting sessions a week, 2 climbing specific sessions a week and 2 cardio (mostly running) sessions a week. That seems like an absolutely manageable baseline, and anything else can be considered extra. I donāt think iām missing many bases there in terms of long term health and happiness, and itās 100% sustainable barring enormous life changes that i donāt anticipate.
