10/15 – Back/Biceps

Spectacular deadlifting. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to pull at all, with my forearm injury and all, but I cautiously proceeded through warmups and since everything ended up feeling really good, pushed things a bit. Finally pulled 700 ‘from the floor’ (previous 700+ pulls were done starting at the top and pausing slightly on the first rep at the floor), and for a double to boot. Really, really pleased. Forearm didn’t complain too much through all this, but I still cannot do movements that put pressure on the forearm (such as rows, db rows, pulldowns, chins), or curling motions. Did some solid sumo sldls, and finished with light shrugs and some curls (right arm only).
