Again mostly slab work. Had a good time figuring out a way to skip a more techy/flexibility move which some others were struggling on by just being an explosive tall jumpy boi.
Good intro with the PT yesterday and few specific exercises to get done before a review next week.
Today
PT shoulder exercises
3 different exercises, each for 3 sets

MAG pulldown
52.5kg x 3 x 10 - very slow and controlled with good scapular moves
Ss/ Back extensions
3 x 20
With PT’s blessing I’m slowly bringing loaded movement of the shoulder in the ROM/plane it tolerates with relatively light loads, whilst avoiding the positions it doesn’t like (end ROM horizontal adduction and vertical abduction).
The position in the sandbag carry is maybe pushing that a little bit but it was a very light load and didn’t bug it at all.
Bounding, skipping, leg swings x 3

Good session with a bit of a loss of lucency towards the end, followed by a great nap.
Slept something like 12 hours monday night and woke up feeling the climving session on Tuesday morning.
Considered a swim but felt it was best to rest a bit, so just did PT and a load of life admin stuff.
Today - Bouldering, top ropes, then a sprint session at the gym afterwards
Good climbing - 3 hour total session with good quality stuff, general movement felt pretty good and some strong moves I couldnt have done a few months ago. Top rope is always fun - there isnt any at my usual gym and this one was a bit more of a trek.
4 x 5 on pullups afterwards, then stretching and PT shoulder stuff.
