So after a beautiful day in the peak yesterday hope you all had a good weekend.
Well done Joughton on the 8a!
UKC Fit Club is not a substitute for the training diary but to use with ( or without ) it as a motivational tool for all.
For those wanting to find out more about training for climbing a number of physical training articles here:
http://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/t.php?t=274502
A new thread is posted each week on Sunday for anyone to jot down their previous week's activity, noting goals, successes and failures and to swap ideas.
Anyone interested in starting is very welcome but you should aim to post each week, every week, however little or much you have done. By making such a regular public record of your activities and by restating your goals every week this new habit will hopefully improve your training habits to help achieve your goals whatever the level of your chosen activity.

Daniel Heath - Nice raining week get out on rock this weekend?
Deacondeacon - Fear of falling is natural. You have to train your mind not to. First thing to do is get a belayer you trust. Second is fall. When I am struggling on lead in my head I am telling myself fall off don't drop off. Keep climb until you fall.
NMN - Working away is hard for training and on your life style and when you get back your just too knackered to do anything. Don't worry about it.
Joughton - Well done on the 8a. Beast! I an keen for malham again this year so happy to hold your rope if you head that way
Si dH - Happy birthday. Sounds close on the 7A+ still not checked out churnet
Eagle River - Well done on the 7b. Did you get to awesome walls yesterday? They set you an 8a on the lead ladder
Kevster - Nice to get in 25 routes over two sessions good effort.
AJM - Sounds like a good day sunday. Well done on the new Fingerboard PB

Ian Bell - Well done on the fingerboard gains

Jamming dodger - Hope your okay
Maria85 - gutted for you on mam tor. Best winter fail I have heard was my mates heading to kinder best nick it had been for 10 years. got to the parking and realised one of my mates for got his boots ... So don't feel too bad about running out of batteries. Well done for getting the skis out

odd toast - Nice happy birthday how was the cake? Victoria spoung? (I want some cake now ..)
Jimmykay - Snowday bloody teachers!
The 8a will come. I remember how fresh you seemed after the 7c in chorro but that could be you were on your second (or third) bottle of wine. When ever I have done a hard route I am truly dead that evening. You probably just need to put the effort in on one while trying not to get bored of the route. You can't climb something you have not go on. happy birthday for yesterday Take it you are having a rest day today
Mr Chewy - Well done on the rockover and pull up PB
Styk - Welcome
