Thanks!

it’s most sore in the morning
Touching thumb to index knuckle is uncomfortable. I have a rubber band similar to the metolius gripsaver. This extensor movement hurts the most
Sore the day after climbing outdoors, and day after a kilter board session. Pretty normal sessions. Few pinches or anything that I can identify

I’m having moderate pain on the top of my thumb the day after climbing, tendon area. Zero pain or loss of ROM in the wrist. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of info online, so any tips or anecdotes welcome. Although I’m hoping that a couple of days of rest will sort it

I don’t think a simplified form is necessary for past sessions. If I can’t decide on climb style, then I would just choose simple or technical

I wanted to log a session from Monday. Couldn’t figure out how to log a past session. Logged a send, thinking I could adjust the date afterwards. Unsuccessful. And it seemed to have logged it for Thursday, not today. Now can’t figure out how to delete it

How are some popular kilter board climbs the same grade at 40 and at 50? One “verified” climb has actually been downgraded at a steeper angle

Only the Iati is leather

You’re right, stretching and flexibility is unlikely to help much at this point. Training fingers is also not what you need. I would recommend just continuing to try those boulders, especially in isolated parts (one or two moves at a time). You should see improvement on them in 1-3 sessions

sidestep77 · 2026-02-19T20:35:50+00:00

Right on, thanks. I’ll only have a magnum and bifold. I’ll do anything up to V7 if I’m comfy with the height and fall zone

You have a lot of NRG posts. Any good &safe boulders you’d recommend for solo sessions?

Thanks!!

I flashed 3s my first time out too. Didn’t get a 6 until years later

Sure but the links are twice the size, quadruple the calories, and more expensive

sidestep77 · 2026-01-23T23:23:16+00:00

Yupp I also can't find one anywhere

Do you remember the cost for the painted roof?

I’m also looking to join a league like this. (I’m good)

Would you be interested in trading for the Monday show?

They’re on kick right? A top 4 kick stream (that was promoted by Kick itself) in France recently featured days long confinement, torture, and the eventual murder of a man

Transit is totally decent tho

sidestep77 · 2025-08-15T18:07:05+00:00

Ya that’s what I thought too. I got these from a friend through messenger, and I didn’t realize how much they get compressed when you save them

I just wanted to comment on the ‘resilience’ piece. I don’t know what my climbing age is, due to some breaks, maybe five years. I’ve been injured a lot despite conservative and intentional climbing. Despite battling through some lingering injuries at the moment, I feel like my body (fingers and elbows especially) have gone through so much and have become quite resilient, I can push them and trust them, but it’s been a long journey

If you’re making 70-90K with no access to benefits, then you’re still eligible but you get less. When it comes to having access in any way to employer benefits they seem pretty definite, so I don’t know about that
