Hangboard # 3 and 2 and backwork...in not that order
Guess i didn't manage to post HB 2 yet. That was on 9.22.16. Yesterday i did HB 3. Actually didn't go too poorly.
Today i did backwork at the gym. I might be paraplegic in the morning, but it was a good 'un.
Deads i did on the olympic platform, so no deficits. And the weights were mostly in kilos, so i'm not entirely sure what i was lifting. And i don't know what the collars weigh. But if i calculated right, I pulled a bit over 460 with the straps. Very weird using a prone grip and those straps, but nice not blowing a biceps.
Then GoodMornings. 135, 155 and 175 all x 12r.
Then P'lups. Got 20 x BW, 10 x +25, and 8 more x +25. That was an improvement.
Then DB rows. Kept these simple, 'cuz i hurt my right shoulder jumping over a stall last night, adn wasn't sure what would happen if i weighted it. Got a set of 10 x 90 each arm, and 10 x 100. Pretty pleased about that--puts me back in visual of where i left off. Left arm is definitely weaker than m' right, but not painful. Just gets tired easier.

Back to it (Season 6, finally)
Looks like i am posting almost exactly 6 months out from left distal biceps rupture/repair. Odd: it really feels longer than that. I'm now about 2 weeks into a 6th season of climb training. Actually started climbing 3-4 weeks out from surgery, but hadn't felt very confident about doing a formal season of it 'til recently. By the grace of GOD, i really haven't lost all that much strength, which just continues to surprise me. I mean, i really don't feel i've lost more than i would have if i'd just sat on the couch eating chips for 6 months, ruptured muscle notwithstanding. I guess my left arm probably feels a li'l weaker than the right, and i'm not 100% confident about redlining on that side yet, but i feel pretty good.
So two weeks ago i got in 2 ARC sessions: one of 2 x 25mins and then 2 x 35mins. Last week i got in 3 sessions (although the last one was lame 'cuz they closed the gym early.) Accidentally did 3 x 35 mins for the first workout instead of 30s, so that made for a nice hard one. then 2 x 30, and the third was supposed to be 2 x 25, but i just made 1 x 35 without enough time.
Last night i did Hangboard #1. Roughly based my weights on the first workout of last season (which was on Jan 26--so 8 months ago), but i had to drop the weights some.
WUJ: -15.
Large Open:
1: +15: Ugh. I think i got these, but hard.
2: +20: Failed at the end of the last 2r.
F3,4: (Shallow)
1: -45: Failed on the last 4 really. Kinda finished with a foot on the ground.
2: -55: No fail. really needed to warm up better for that. Not bad, but that was kinda pushing it.
SemiClosed: (F3 to outside dimp)
1: -40: No fail. Ok. Went pretty conservative after the pockets above, but i'm glad.
2: -30: NO FAIL! But pretty burly though.
F 2,3,4: (Shallow scalloped)
1: -15: Ugh. failed last 2.
2: -20 (decr): Yeah, sorta fail. Hard.
Wide Pinch:
1: -50: Not bad! Fail last 3 secs.
2: -40: Ha! Last 3 secs last 2 r.
Sloper:
1: BW: Fail last 3. Kina hot.
2: -10: Last sec last rep. Better.
Narrow:
1: -75: Last 2 secs last 2 reps.
2: -70: Last couple. managed to kick the speakers over along with my timer, so i'm not sure how close i got on this one.
Overall, i was very pleased with how this went after the very long hiatus. Really not that far off of where i blew up.
Back Work this evening. I kinda did a deads workout last week to practice using the new Ironmind straps, but it wasn't much of a workout. Today... well, i'll feel this in the mornin'.
Def Deads:
21 x bw
21 x bar
14 x 145
8 or so x 245
5ish x 345 (used the straps here)
2 x 395 (Inzer here)
Failed twice with 445. Cool.
Good Mornings:
12 x 135
12 x 155
stopped there i think.
P'lups:
20 x bw. Most i've done in a while.
10 x +25. Clean.
6 x +25. Tiredtired.
DB Rows:
12 x 75. fine.
10 x 90. Got this bilat. Very encouraging. This one showed me my left arm is still weaker, but it wasn't far off. Very thankful to merciful GOD i didn't blow any springs or gaskets.
