Uni life

training training training 











 It’s been a while since my latest blog post and getting used to Uni life has taken more time that I thought.
The past six weeks have been very busy with Uni and training but finally I have worked out a good balance between work and sport. Currently I’m training 5 days a week going to the gym, doing lots and lots of pull-ups, hanging on the fingerboard but also weight to balance out the pulling. I’m running 2 days a week for cardio. This includes 30 minutes warm-up jog then 60 minutes of uphill running on the treadmill then 30 minutes warm down jog. Then I finish the session of with lots of stretching. But when the weather is nice I take my training outside where I will run for 60 minutes then do pull-ups on an old anchor, then campus exercises under some stares, then run for another 60 minutes.
This training routine shall get me ready for my planned winter pursuits. I am already ice climbing and ski tours in the Swiss Alps.

Unfortunately, the next climbing wall is 45 minutes dive away and I still don’t have a car here. So I’ve only been getting there once a week. But as of next week, I will drive my car from Switzerland to the UK: super excited!! This will allow me to train 3 to 4 days a week in the climbing gym! 
More soon.
