Tracking my Climbing Progress
1) Oct 2009 - Started climbing again after a serious pulley injury
2) Oct to Mid Nov 2009 - Started building up my climbing fitness
3) Late Nov 2009 - Yangshuo, 2 weeks, completed a few 7bs, 7b+es
4) Dec 2009 - Maintenance mode
5) Late Dec 2009 - Nyammuk/Camp5/Putra, completed Pear, felt super fit endurance wise though lacking in strength and power
6) Jan 2010 to Early Mar 2010 - Periodization
i) 2 weeks of strength
ii) 2 weeks of strength/power
iii) 2 Weeks of Power
iv) 3 weeks of Power Endurance
Felt that my strength and power improved, able to do the crux of a route in Putra (which i couldn't do in Dec 09). Not as fit endurance wise compared to after Yangshuo
7) Mid Mar 2010 - Krabi, 1 week, completed a 7b+ and 7c. Felt that all the 7b+es in Krabi were within reach (except for maybe BDD which i didn't try)
8) Late Mar 2010 - Feeling demotivated, felt that i had sacrificed too much of my time in climbing. Taking it easy with short and relaxing sessions
9) Mid Apr 2010 - Old man came back, organized KL trip and got everyone psyched (ok maybe not everyone), decided to try getting back my fitness
10) May 2010 - 4 weeks of fitness training, decided to incorporate training for KL into a larger periodization program which will end in early July in time for my overseas trip.
11) Mid May 2010 - Feeling good though i am the type of person who likes to overdo things when i feel strong and ends up getting injured. Need to be mindful of that. Projects for Camp5 and Putra - GRAY ROUTES!!!
