"I know what you're going through"

Civilian training diaries are usually pretty boring blog posts. A diary excerpt from Jack Lalanne, Bruce Lee, or Wolfgang Gullich would be absolutely riveting, but alas, I’m not quite up to their standard. So I try not to post much about the specifics of my training.

However, people love a good comeback story. I still can't walk very far without crutches and I feel beat to shit right now. This might be why:

Note: Tue was very similar in volume except that I was on the fingerboard at the shed instead of Vertical Heaven. Wed entailed 8 hours on 2 feet cooking for a client which didn’t help the swelling situation very much.
