174 and dropping!

That's right the first time since August of 09 I'm under 175 biotches!

So I challenged myself to a 100 day of running. I have to run at least 1 mile although I always try for more for at least 100 days. I'm on day 25 I've lost 8lbs since I started! Also I'm eating as close to Paleo as possible with a few cheats like brown rice. Haven't had a slice of bread in two weeks either, most of my carb intake has been coming from bananas and apples and the brown rice. Oh yeah and I pretty much cut alcohol out of my diet too. I know what you might be saying...EZ just aint EZ without his nalgene full of vodka and redbull, but fear not as soon as I hit my goals I'll be back running round the boulders drink in hand get my send on!

Last week was a rest week for training I finished my 12 weeks of initial power to try and regain some of what I had lost over the last year. This week started a Power Endurance cycle which will last 3 weeks. Basically I run circuit laps on the bouldering wall until I can't hold on any more and do this over and over. I was able to hold on for a little over 3 minutes which is shit if you're a route climber. My goal is 10 minutes by the end if this cycle. Then I'll start another 6 week power cycle to start gearing up for the season.

Oh yeah and I'm planning on adding some p90 to my workouts too. I've done p90 in the past and it definitely works, however this time I'm planning on altering the plan to eliminate and leg exercises and replace those days for the core synergictics. If you know me then you know legs are the last thing I need to work on since I'm built more like an MMA fighter than a rock climber--F U GENETICS I WILL OVERCOME! haha just kidding

Now on to some goals for the next 6 months:

Routes               Boulders
4-12a's                5-v6's
3-12b's                4-v7's
2-12c's                3-v8's
1-12d                  v9

If I send anything harder awesome if I complete my goals awesome if I dont still awesome that I am still healthy to climb and I'll work harder!
