Squeezin' it!


I started running.  Yesterday 3.5 mi.  Today I went 2 then did 4-70yard sprints then 2 more miles.  Yesterday, I worked out at garage strength.  Doin some dips, ring flys, inclined dumbell bench and a burpee tabata.  Frustrated with my meager rope climbing performances I decided to get nuts today.  I realized I was doing 14 pulls on the way up.  I feel like that is pretty significant and should warrant some recovery time.  So today I went for volume.  I did 5 rope climbs (14 pulls to my peak)  I just took plenty of rest between sets.  I think the high volume of grabbing the rope will pay off.  Then I did 4 x 10 pull ups with a towel to continue my grip strength obliteration.  Then I did rafter rows with the towel.  Hopefully my forearms feel like butt tomorrow.

squeeze- 1,2,3...
rope climbing is best when going for speed like in Universal Soldier. Bruce Lee forearms henceforth noted as BLF

"14 Pulls to my Peak" sounds like a short and unentertaining porno.

If I ever stop finding blindingly juvenile things such as that funny, please end my life.
