Nieuwegein mostly, next year here in Utrecht with the USAC.

If you're interested in climbing a new mountain network gym has opened in Amsterdam, it looks great. It's also the home of the ASAC.

The halls here in Utrecht aren't great. Very busy (waiting in line for the ropes etc), not a high ceiling and not very large. It's only really accessible with the USAC. Nieuwegein is pretty good (sans the boulder area - small & kinda bad), the MN hall in Amsterdam is great. They moved from an old church to an entirely new location, dunno exactly where. Lots of ropes, great ceiling and a huge bouldering area.

You can climb 'for fun' or 'more serious', though you need your basic climbing licence to do either really. It's not a bad idea to follow the introductory course. It's 4 lessons and easy, if you're a member of one of the NSACs, it's really cheap as well (although you'll need NKBV membership to join + contribution so it kinda evens out). Regular price is about 75 euros, but from then on you'll be able to climb independently in a pair.

Yesterday we did a chest and back workout till failure on all working sets.

When doing my chest I have this pain in my right shoulder joint, it's been like it for a long time. It feels like I'm using my shoulder to help push the weight up, though when I was doing the lifts my PT put both hands on my shoulders and said they felt even and neither was lifting up. I think I need to see a physiotherapist

most likely your rotator cuff (possibly tendonitis). If it's still in a very early stage you can get rid of it by not doing upper body work for a week or 2 and then slowly build it up again. Maybe skip the bench press and other exercises that hurt for a month.
If it's already in an advanced state you have to see a physiotherapist.

This is the kind of injury that, if not treated properly, can set you back months.

See I don't know if it's an injury. It never hurts any other time and yet it's been like this for years. My theory is that years of carrying a heavy bag over my right shoulder at school and then playing bass guitar a hell of a lot has permanently made my shoulder cuff rotate forward a touch so when I do bench press exercises it can hurt a bit.

Note that I did start with incline bench presses, followed by a set of flat bench, then tried to to the machine. That hurt so we tried flyes but that hurt too, so we moved onto the back. Strangely enough, and I told him it would happen before it did, the second I started doing wide grip lat pull downs the pain disappeared, by the second to third rep no less.

I would still see a physiotherapist about it

lol pudzian

warmup with more than what most people max

I'd say most can't max what he warms up with

I felt pretty good about squatting 8 reps of 95kg an hour ago but that guy is warming up on OHP with that much

Looks like it's probably more..

same shit

My right wrist hurts when doing barbell rows. It doesn't hurt with any other exercise, not even wrist curls (unless i do them right after barbell rows).
It feels like my grip isnt right on that hand and it's like im twisting my wrist a bit in- (or out)wards when pulling the bar up.

Any ideas or suggestions?

palms facing in.

e: how to did i fuck that up?

yes

Dunno. Widen, or narrow the grip?

Who here uses fitocracy?
