Hey everyone,

Luke McGrane here (rock climber and Mardyke gym staff).

I'm very keen to get the mountaineering club into the squad gym for an hour every week in the upcoming college year. I plan to devise separate programmes for both climbers and hikers. A year long plan to develop strength-endurance, strength, and finally power all the while educating about and incorporating injury reduction (hikers: knees and ankles, climbers: shoulders, knees and wrists).

To make this happen, I will need to produce to my S&C boss that there is:

1. A demand for a club hour in the squad gym.

2. A plan for the year of what I want to do with the club.

This plan is going to take me 4-8 hours to prepare and only want to commit my time if there is a demand for it.

So...

to show your interest, please both sign and share with your climbing/hiking buddys this petition. Looking for as many signatures as I can get.

The level of interest demonstrated by this group confirms that a strength and conditioning program is a priority for the club. This momentum provides the necessary justification to present my proposal to the management team at the gym.

A good incentive to help hikers a climbers to minimise pain and injuries as most of the participants are not profesionals and don't know how to use the body and equipments in specific conditions.

A regular strength and conditioning programe would be hugely benificial for climbers wanting to make the most of their training. This would be a valuable asset for the club for beginer and experienced members

Luke is strong and a good teacher. Anyone who doesn't sign up for this is gay.
