With the holidays and feasts coming and passing, sport climbers across the world are shitting their pants in fear over the fate of their 8a.ego score cards. Between too much booze, turkeys, pies, puddings, stuffings, and potatoes made in more ways your can imagine, even the most disciplined bolt clipper is bound to pack a few on pounds–obviously a bad thing for both your projects and your ego.

But never fear, Limit is to the rescue! I’m going to share with you a magical diet I picked up a few years ago while living in Hollywood working as a stunt double and fitness trainer for stars so big you’ve never heard of them. (more…)

Turkey day. Literally.

Turkey day. Literally.

Hey everyone. We’re sorry we’ve been a little scarce on the posting. And I’m sorry Limit hasn’t posted a Whiskey Wednesday in like 2 weeks. It’s because his lazy unemployed ass lacks a little thing we call “motivation” and “duty.” No matter we will resume more regular posting tomorrow. I hope everyone of you has a good Turkeyday! I really actualy hope you’re NOT home with your family and you’re out climbing somewhere. 

 

xoxo.

This recipe is too easy not to try and makes enough to feed at least 4-5 hungry climbers. (more…)

Stick Clipping

Fig. One: The Trango Squid

Sometime in the dawn of the prehistoric age, man began using sticks as tools. Whether as clubs or drawing tools, the stick became essential to Caveman’s survival. Interestingly, I find that there are striking similarities between sport climbers and Caveman: they sit around in the dirt, they employ similar mating rituals (mostly grunting and flexing). They also both love their sticks. You probably think I’m full of shit, but in reality, I have been in contact with several prominent anthropologists regarding these similarities.

Emily Harrington is a total bad ass. She climbs hard inside and out. She’s a comp killin, climbing dynamo and will simply not stop crushing. We did get her to sit down and give us some answers about her life, what she’s doing, and how she might or might not want to be an assassin for the CIA.

Let’s start with basics. Where are you from? How old are you? How long have you lived in boulder?
I am 22 years old, I was born in Boulder and I still live here (but we moved to Kansas City when I was 2 for a year). (more…)
