New LT11 Video

I love Louder than 11's videos. The music is always amazing and they have a way of making the best climbs seem better. The shooting is beautiful and the climbs always make my palms sweat. The thing about them is they are less focused on the grade as they are on the company, the scenery, and the rock. Check out this new video from them sending in Rocky Mountain National Park!!

What a rough night!

Last night was incredibly awful for me. I dont really know what happened to me actually. I just lost it, things werent going well with a special someone and not being able to climb did it in for me. I found out that because they are setting for a comp at the gym, i wont be able to climb till next saturday. Those who know me, know that i use climbing as a way to make myself relax and helps me keep my cool. Not being able to climb hurts me so much so i broke down! I just kind of spent some time by myself thinking about my life! Sometimes, i need those times but it would help if i had someone i could do to. Nevertheless, even though i was close to giving up, i am never going to give up!!! things get better, i have been to rock-bottom and back and i know that things get better, i just have to stay positive!!

The new fad is soloing

http://www.dpmclimbing.com/climbing-videos/watch/matthew-bush-solo-climbing-8a513c

This video is about matthew bush soloing so ridiculous hard climbs in South Africa. Have you ever heard of Bush? Yea, neither have I! All i know is that this badass dude solos really hard climbs, most people wouldnt even dream of soloing. He does all of this with no worry whatsoever. He, obviously, plans his routes for a long time, his movements are flowing beautifully!!! It is amazing to see what this man can do! I really hope he turns up on the climbing scene cause i wanna see more of his. I have come to the conclusion that i kind of want to try soloing maybe nothing as hard as fucking 13c but it looks fun! It is indeed the most purest form of climbing, just shoes and u!! alone on the rock!!! I have done some small indoor solos before and i can normally keep relatively calm during but it is still a really hard mental game!! i dont know if i have it in me, i guess we will find out hahaha

Never Give Up!

I have been running a lot lately for cross-training for climbing. I feel like it has been helping and I just feel better about myself. But, it happens everytime. About half way through, I get really tired and all i want to do is stop running and relax. It is one of the toughest things for anyone to do; to ignore your head and know that what you are doing is gonna help you in the long run. But it is true. I want to be great, i wanna be a great climber. So, i am happy to run and i am starting to see progress. "Pain is weakness leaving the body" i always remember that!! It helps me accel!
