Argh!

So I tried chalk just on the fingers, and that didn't feel much better.
Then I re tried chalk all-over and it felt good. I felt like I could easily hit my numbers.
Then my callous tore!. Actually my skin tore just proximal to my existing callous beneath my middle finger. My callous stopped the skin tear.


So after my work out I washed very well with soap and, rinsed with H2O2. pulled out the rolled up skin, and applied pressure. Hopefully it will graft back together.

Tomorrow presses.

To Do get a glove, get tape.

Chalk Up Another PR

I tried a serious amount of chalk today with the 16kg RKC style snatch.

It sure made the grip easier, but it also pulled on my palms more than I liked.

I will try chalking only the upper part of my hands plus fingers and see how that feels.

90 RKC style snatches 45 Left, 45 Right

16kg RKC rule Snatch Test PR

80!
40 Left, 40 Right
sweet!

I Hit My Tonnage # for RKC Snatch Test

OK it was with the 16kg not the 24kg, but I got the total tonnage
for 152 Lbs men: 1152 kg!

With the 16kg I Got 32 Left then 40 Right!

So my next snatch goal is to hit my tonnage for the next weight class which is (24kg *52 = 1248kg)
or 78 reps with the 16kg.

Kettlebell Rx from the Doc

The good doctor gave me a perscription for the RKC cert in Aug.

I started a spread sheet (the 1st entry is before the new protocol)
