  1. This is no criticism only my thoughts take it how you may I have been climbing twenty years all over the world I still go to Germany infact am off next month for two weeks as my diary is quite for April I remember the first time I went I was nervous but i had been climbing for 16 years tree work takes time you cannot substitute it with any amount of new tackle or training these things will help but you need to get experience on the ground watching competent climbers and then practice and get your skills up to a standard you can actually make money for someone i remember u asking how much u would be earning a day befor u went did u consider how much u could make for them tree work is not like working in a factory or a wear house wear u clock on and clock off and as long as you are there that's ok u need to cut trees if u are a climber this means a certain amount of work is required of u if not what's the point contract climbing is a tough and demanding way to make money I personally think minum of 5 years experience befor thinking of calling yourself a freelance climber

  13. Once it's in your blood much like tree work you never leave ?
  14. My incline personal best
  15. I have had same thing mate feel like a deflated balloon it's shit am just getting my full appetite back
  16. I bench twice a week flat bench on a Tuesday and incline on a sat I train two other days in the week total 4 days which for heavy weights is plenty body needs to recover on the other days my PB on incline is 160kg
  17. A bench plan is required I doing one at the moment to try and break my PB it's actually very rewarding watching your numbers go up even though a small amount if complete all the it's guaranteed your final lift should be what u have aimed for i am hoping for 200kg in a few as long as my body stays injury free
  18. Let's hear some bench stats of all you gym sharks I have red pages and pages of squatting prowess and now it's deads there is another very important discipline that's bench press no half reps or not touching your chest full range of motion slight pause at the bottom
  19. If you ain't going heavy you aren't trying [emoji6]
  20. I had a 390xp seize on good fuel dealer sorted it as a warranty claim within 3 days i no u don't want to hear it but I also had pole saw shaft that some gearing inside broke another warranty claim sorted two no questions asked on either I do think it's got something to with dealers
  21. I haven't drank in 9 years don't miss it people who do don't understand but why would they it's not for everyone but it suites me and that's all that counts and as you have experienced training is so much more rewarding without a hangover ?
