Hey, you still throwing? Last I saw was when you were learning the spin for shot, back in may 2014. I am also a thrower (M60 in a couple months). I quit logging here cause I seemed to be the only thrower left.
Hi Sir,
I’ve been away from throwing since then (it feels like longer tbh) Debated a new log, but didn’t feel like writing an intro, sorry to be misleading. I am starting to feel the call again somewhat, it may be something I get back into in 2017, I had far too many obligations and lacked the physical body + resources to be any good let alone elite at throwing, I needed to get away for the time being.
Thanks for the reply. I’ll keep checking anyway, just in case the bug bites you again.

Ugh. Gross rounded, hitching, twisting mess. My back feels fine today by incredible luck only.
Time to bring the weight way down, maybe by following Thib’s advice to DOH instead of PR/SU.

Im dropping the nominal “close grip” element of this. I use a narrow grip width, it’s best for my shoulder health, it’s probably not close enough to be considered a legit cgbp.

I do T, F, Y raises with plates in the morning at work when I need to get away from my desk- work on my long neglected small raising muscles and terrible grip strength. I think I strained or pinched something this morning, as a few minutes after doing them my neck had some discomfort and weakness set in. It was hard to raise my head above where my focus of vision was slightly below straight ahead. It improved slightly when I got off work so I figured I would go to the gym get loose and at least curl or something. Really crowded and no way I was going to deadlift but there was a bench open. Got loose and dialed in real slow.
Things felt heavier than weds but moved well through 225. 240 got a little sticky so I went for 247 instead of 255, 247 was better and I wanted to best last week so I jumped to 252. Hit a little slow spot halfway but overall not a true grind, I think I left a few pounds in the tank. I’ll take it after spending the day concerned I might have to take some time off. Felt decent with the bench adrenaline, better yet with a shower worked up to very hot but nowhere close to 100% head ROM. Hopefully I can hoop tomorrow and Deadlift on weds.
