BODY WEIGHT WORKOUT

Push ups
5 x 10

Pull ups
5 x 5

Tweeked my left hand somehow.

I other news, I randomly grabbed a #3 today and took it down to about 1/2" from CCS.  Lefty.  My left has always had better sweep strength than the right.  If I ever certify, it will probably be lefty.

GYM CHALLENGE

They posted a challenge at my work gym so I figured I would try that since I had a headache and didn't want to put much thought into my training day. 

Challenge - Complete three full cycles of the following exercises:

10 jumping lunges
20 box jumps (30" box)
30 squats (36# body bar)
30 bicycles (ab exercise)
20 push ups
10 pull ups

My total time was 12m 40s.  So far I'm the only one who has done the challenge, and frankly I'll be shocked if anyone in the building beats my time.  I never stopped moving and didn't have to split any sets.  This was incredibly demanding.

VULCAN

2 x 5 x L6
3 x 5 x L9

Bothered my middle finger a little, so I stopped. 

UPDATE - it's 7/5 and my finger feels fine.  I don't get what the actual problem is; behaves very odd.

PINCH, RT

Headache and tired, but weights don't lift themselves:

2HP
4 x 5 x 105#

RT
4 x 5 x 100# (both hands)

Mighty Joe Thumblaster, a bunch in every direction.

Middle finger seems to be tolerating any of this just fine.  The thing that hurts the most is getting a lot of curl pressure into the last knuckle.  Like imagine you are hanging from a bar and you've slid down to your finger tips and are about to drop.  That would hurt.
