Sunday
2 hand pinch
Hit the wall and couldn't pull a single rep with my usual planned working weight. I'll take this as a sign of over training which is ok. I bench and pull tomorrow and that's it until competition day. Rest, stretch and recover.

Friday
Stub work - volume

2 hand pinch

My right wrist is still (today being Sunday) aching after the heavy axe work on Tuesday. I'll have to limit this now to one session a week. That said it was HEAVY (close to the record). On other matters I've been especially tired these last few days so the need to drive myself onwards has been paramount. Friday's session was a good example. Dog tired, feeling run down and so on yet when the time came the tired dog becomes a feral beast and wants to tear shit up.
