In lieu of an early beer and some much-desired children-free work on the climbing wall, i made me go to the irongym. Figured i'd burn more calories that way. It was me and Richard Simmons. Where do these people come from?
P'lups:
20xbw
6x+45
3x+70
2x+80
1x+90
1x+100 (tried a second with this, but it didn't happen. Could'a used a spot on this'un.)
Straight Leg Deads:
14x145
8x195
8x215
6x235
6x255
4x275
Grip was decidedly waning at the end here. Over two weeks of immobilized toxification added nothing to the pleasurability.
Hanging Leg Raises:
30xshoes
3x10xweights
These didn't improve o'er the hiatus either.
OneArm Rows:
8x90
6x105
6x120
Here my elbow tried to collapse. This pretty much signaled the end of the workout.
Bent Over BB Rows:
10x135
1x175
Elbow lit up, and i stopped.
Ab Wheelies:
2x12
i actually collapsed and fell on my face on the last one. i tried not to cuss or cry. Fortunately no one saw me. i don't know what's wrong with my elbow. i tried some light cable pressouts to see if i could isolate the pain, but it didn't work. It's totally inconsistent, but it's crippling. Like sometimes i'll lean against a wall or press down on the car door for balance getting out, and nearly crumple. Very irritating.
Ayhow, it was otherwise a pretty nice workout.

Sounds like the same issue I have with my elbows. It's been going on for years. I can always count on the flare ups after an extended period of boozing.
i've wondered if that has something to do with it. i mean, it doesn't feel like tendonitis; it feels, intermittantly, like there's no tendon there at all.
could be like a mild gout... booze does make that flare up...
