Power Endurance and Tendonitis
After a great day at work with only two hours to climb before my evening class, I decided upon training my power endurance. To train it, I decided to do every beginner problem to warm up, then do every intermediate. After every 5 problems or so, I would do 30 push-ups to work antagonist pushing muscles in my chest.
The circuit began strong with very little rest between problems, but a good friend of mine showed up and needed help getting inside the campus gym. At first, I considered being selfish by not "wasting time" with my training to let him in, but that would be seriously lame of me, wouldn't it? And though my "generosity" (which I put in quotes because I feel it was barely so in comparison to how this friend helped me) needed no compensation, this friend, former amazing surfer-dude Jared Lallatin, snapped the photo seen above of me on the one problem I have not sent yet, Tendonitis.
It ended being an overall good time with he, I, and another friend of ours. I would only complain about how well I performed, holding myself to a high standard, of course, but it was one day of many to come in which I can find improvement as well as acceptance.
