goings on as of late...

Yo. Sorry for the lack of updates, but with the rain and what not, there really has been nothing worth mentioning.

Here's what's up anyway:

1. My job at Bosch Rexroth is what's up.
2. Turns out a month of rope climbing will vastly improve your endurance...
3. ...It also sends your bouldering strength downhill. Who would have thought?

My hangboard is finally mounted in my apartment. Currently I'm doing the Metolius Simulator workout, but plan to add a few of my own things to it once I get acclimated.

More updates to come when something interesting happens.

new years resolutions

happy new years everybody!

i know, i'm a few days late. sue me.

with this new year ahead of us, i figured it was time to make some resolutions for a kick ass year. they cover several different topics, so for convenience i'm going to break them up into 3 categories: climbing, school, and life.

climbing resolutions
because i'm optimistic, i have several:
1. train more, instead of just climbing whatever tickles my fancy at the gym
2. set some goals and keep track of what i have climbed and what i want to climb in the future
3. become a more well rounded climber, aka take something besides bouldering seriously from a performace viewpoint
4. work on my head game

school resolutions
due to a slight priority mix up, i have fewer of these:
1. get my scholarships back
2. find out exactly what kind of engineer i want to become
3. talk to my professors outside of lecture

life resolutions
for stuff that doesn't fall into the other two categories:
1. remember people's names the first time they tell them to me.
2. be less condescending
3. keep in touch with people

i'll be back with a more detailed plan to carry these out later
