Tuesday
Up before the sunrise (4am or so). First workout done between 8am and 8.30am.
One hand pinch
Because we're that close to the event and whatever they lift, so to speak, doesn't matter (you pull more than I do you win - it's that simple) and no amount of work in the next few days changes me, you or anyone else etc I'm putting up the numbers. Indeed as I have been since last week. So..
Both hands get warmed up with:
22.7-kilos set up x 8 reps @, 27.7-kilos x 3 reps @ and finally 32.7-kilos x 3 reps @
Then -
L/H: 33.7-kilos x 3 reps - was easy so upped it again to 34.7-kilos x 3 x 3 reps
R/H: 33.7-kilos x 3 reps, 42.2-kilos x 3 x 3 reps.

A lot more, than old anyway. movement to stay limber. I drag my ass out of my office chair in discomfort (I'm out shortly buying anti inflammatory's) yet by the time I've done I'm bending over no problem. Such is movement, heat/sweat and a little endorphin / exercise high.
One hand pinch
L/H: 4 x 3 reps with working weight (there's a big difference between this and the right hand)
R/H: LH weight x 3 then 2 x 3 and 1 x 1 + F with the working weight.
I'll start working out what I think my 1RM's will be in the next few days for all of the events. Then it'll be game plan for the day.

@ Powerhouse so as to be serious enough to do some proper stretching. The lower back etc etc tightness is still an issue (Osteo Monday) but doesn't affect one hand pinching. Home gym work is on a Euro set, Powerhouse on a pin etc
One hand pinch work
L/H: about par.
R/H: almost 2 x 20-kilo plates (slight assistance from finger and thumb of the lefty hand. Backed off to a decent working weight. I pull a lot more than this on a Euro. There is, obviously, some crossover. Regardless so long as both hands feel worked and I stretched it's all good. Tomorrow back on the program!!

One hand pinch
L/H: same weight as last time just a better 4 x 3 sets/reps
R/H: up a half kilo and 3 x 3 and 1 x 5 reps.
Small adjustment of hand position to both hands to get better pressure from the outer two fingers.

One hand pinch
Adjustable thick bar
I will be keeping the numbers just not where Andy and my competition will see them ha ha. However, after this first week of breaking in (and much like Andy teaches) I'll breakdown the weeks, my targets and plan to get some good numbers on the day.
