Climb on!

Sleep: 12:53-8:06 did not wake up much but had a lot of tiring dreams. Tired this morning. Stiff, too, but not as bad as I had feared.

Social Climbing: It was PACKED & climbs were hard to come by and I didn't have much time because I had to get home and do homework. I got to do a 5.9 and a pumpy 10a. Both went really well, although I did not make it up the 10a without resting. Daniel said that it seemed to him like I had made a real breakthrough in my climbing - I am steadier and more confident, and I really feel that that's true. I am much more comfortable moving myself through space and relying on my limbs to do what I tell them to do. I think this is probably a direct result of the strength gains I have been making lately.

I did not have the time to do any of the cash out stuff I would have liked to do - although I did try a couple handstand kick-ups before we started climbing. Just testing what it was like to kick up and put weight on my arms. I am still too scared of the dismount (or the inevitable crash) to try to get up into a real handstand - but ... baby steps, right?

Food:
9:00 - 6 oz black coffee
11:35 - 1.25 c cottage cheese w/ almonds & cinnamon
12:45 - 1oz spiced cashews
1:00 - 10 oz coffee w/ 3/4 cup milk
2:50 - 1 oz spiced cashews
3:20 - 1 multiv, 3 wellness formula, 2 glucosamine, 4 omega-3, 1 serving (2 cups) cooked kale, veggie sausage walnuts, black beans, parmesean.
8:00 - 3 BBQ chicken legs, 2 baby yams, 3/4 cup sauteed spinach w walnuts. 16 oz milk - SOOO YUMMY
12:00 - 2 zma
