From amputations to 7a. It's amazing how the body From amputations to 7a.

It's amazing how the body adapts over time to my will. 

Looking forward to the next level from here.

Rehab tools that I have been using:

Gripsaver plus from @metoliusclimbing

Splithanger from @rungne_official

Climbed nonstop on the @kilterboard because it works well to get stronger, and it's easy to measure progression.

The journey of exploring my potential after losing The journey of exploring my potential after losing so much of my fingers continues.

With patience and continuity. Accepting my level and building from there. Never give up on anything that brings you joy.

The @kilterboard has been such a great tool to get back into climbing and regaining that fingerstrength!

Looking for that next level ✅️

Today two years ago I survived a night above 7000m Today two years ago I survived a night above 7000m outside on Annapurna I. My body is still sensitive to cold since then. I will find a way and adapt. Body and mind in collaboration can achieve alot together, once the direction is set and the willpower is there.

Adaptation over time.

The inner fire is still there even if its been a small one latetly. I have been focusing on learning a new job in logistics since February. Different challenge but it has been one I have enjoyed.

Today I remember all the support I got during the challenging times with all of my frostbite. 

Thank you all again.

But it was all really unnecessary. 

I have learned that you don't really need the last joints on your fingertips anyway. Except for when climbing slopers. Slopers are hard now. If you like crimps you actually get stronger faster. 

Thanks to @klatterdomen climbing gym in Göteborg,
for your support when I rediscovered climbing for the second time in my life.

Thanks to @fjallsport for being good friends and offer great outdoor gear.

Thanks to @houdinisportswear Göteborg for help,
repairs and great service as always.

When it's time I will put some fuel on the inner fire again, and make the largest fire I can. I will need it to keep the frostbite away, because I'm going back up.

One year ago today, my life changed forever. Last One year ago today, my life changed forever.

Last year we had to amputate six joints on my fingers.

My fingers are now much more sensitive to cold temperatures. 

This was my new baseline from where I started to rebuild when my new fingers had healed up.

Since February I have done more then 102 training sessions, targeting mostly the weaker points as my grip strength and finger strength. 

I went from relearning to use my hands after 9 months of limitations, inactivity, blocked and damaged finger joints to being able to climb vertically again.

My training have been a mix of overall strength for climbing and stairmaster/uphill training. My legs got a healthy 29000 vertical meters during the same period.

I upload all my training on strava except my almost daily leg mobility and shoulder rehab sessions. 

The only true disability is a disabled mindset. 

I am working towards getting back to exploring my potential in the high mountains and will be aiming for a comeback next year, climbing in the same style as always. 

I have started to work at my local climbing gym @klatterdomen

I'm starting with doing talks about 8000m without bottled oxygen and the mindset you need to have to handle that kind of environment. I have succeeded but also suffered and lost bodyparts, there are lessons from my journey to be shared.

I'm looking for sponsors and collaborations as I'm looking to build long term partnerships where I can provide value from my experiences and future plans.

Don't hesitate to send me a DM or give me some advice.

Dont forget to watch swedish tv4 tomorrow. I will probably be a part of the after five show.

Thanks for all the support during this last year it made a massive positive impact to read all your comments. I appreciate you all more then you know ❤️
Restarted bouldering today and felt a lot of joy, Restarted bouldering today and felt a lot of joy, being able to do a couple of moves on overhang. I feel like a beginner again but that is totally fine because I have been missing this type of climbing for so long and are super happy for being able to complete harder movements on the wall. 

My baby skin on the fingers needs some improvement aswell and that will arrive naturally as I progress to harder movements and more volume traning @klatterdomen 

Thanks to @jimruneson and Thomas Morsing for today's training session 👊

Three months have passed since surgery and six par Three months have passed since surgery and six partial amputations of my fingers after suffering severe frostbite on Annapurna I, 8091m last year.

Second photo is taken one month later and it was around this time when I started to slowly explore my grip from a pullup bar. During the second month I got a gym membership @satsgoteborg and started to work with continuity on my gripstrength. 

Today I can do 16 pullups and Im very happy with the progress of my gripstrength but not satisfied. 

Next target is 30 pullups and slowly start working on one arm hangs from the pullup bar. I also got back into indoor climbing at my local climbing gym @klatterdomen 

One training session at a time I'm building myself up again. I'm also on strava if you want to see what kind of workouts I'm doing to get my fitness back.

Day 79 since surgery. Day 323 since frostbite. Ab Day 79 since surgery. Day 323 since frostbite.

About 50 days ago when my new fingertips healed up I started to slowly build gripstrength, hanging from the pullup bar. 

Today I can enjoy easier climbing again and move vertical on the wall. I will continue to explore my climbing on the wall and I have to be patient because I don't want any more injuries.

Feels great to be back @klatterdomen my old indoor climbing gym!
