I did this one more time a few hours later following my 1 minute hang from rings.

Shit - my forearms, shoulders and traps are sore.

I used it once. Got a great pump, but my shoulders were pissed. So I posted it on FB marketplace and sold it for $300 less than two hours later.

Friday - I did something. Don’t remember what.

Sunday - HR Derby and ASG. it’s incredibly hard to hit with a broken hand. Also, my shoulder knot has grown and causing immense pain in my elbow and hand.

Monday - Slept in, then had a late dinner meeting. Was raelly looking forward to leg day

Tuesday - Hotel life. 15 minutes of cardio.

Wednesday - Spent all day with three engineers walking around a building. I can’t be bothered to workout. Instead got a 40 and pint of ice cream. Hit a new low when I didn’t have a bottle opener so popped it on the bathroom counter.

Gonna hit it hard on Friday. Long drive tomorrow to a long meeting, then a long drive to another meeting, then a long drive home.

3x235 - fuck me. Back felt like it compressed, dropped the weight, instant pain.

Same shit that happened last year.

I was thinking that I would do DLs, for the first time in 6 months, for this morning’s workout… You have instilled the fear. Hope all gets well quick!

I’m headed to PDX today for a week. Long-shot, but Let me know if you’ll be in the area.

I’m stoked because I found not one, but two, franchises of my gym within 5 miles of where I work and sleep!

Here’s to a speedy recovery :beers:
