Yesterday, I decided to work on my shoulder strength and my finger grip strength. Last time I did a lot of 1-handed swings, I got some blisters on the base of my fingers, including one blood blister. That looks gross! The blister is gone now, but the blood is still there.
The blisters formed because my grip was not correct during the switch off between hands. I would grip it too tightly and in the process, pinch skin in between my hand and the handle.
So, I did some farmer's carries to work on finger strength. I also worked on shoulder strength with arm bars and TGUs.
Yesterday's WO:
5L5R 20# arm bar with press
TGU 20# 4L4R3L3R2L3R2L2R1L1R
5LR alternating arm bar with press 12kg
Farmer's walk with one KB using finger hook grip 16kg LRLR ~200ft (10 laps of my weight room)
2-arm swings - 16kg - 210, 10, 10
1-arm swings - 12kg - 2xladder 5L5R -> 1L1R
Today was the Beautiful Badass Simple Strength 1 Week 2 Day 3. I watched the squat section of Rippetoe's Starting Strength video during my workout. Such a good video!
