Today is a good day. The weather is beautiful, I'm back home after a few days in Florida on bizniss, I got my truck out of winter storage , and I had a great workout.
Warmup: the usual stuff plus some extra shoulder warmups
C&J 3x2x35kg, 4x1x37.5kg, 5x1x40kg
Jerks behind head 3x5x60#, 2x5x65#
Chins 3x5xBW, 2x4xBW
You're hooking, right? (Hmmm, bets as to how long it takes for that statement to get misconstrued... LOL)
You can always tape over your calluses too. When I was wrapping the one hand, the calluses got significantly smaller w/o compromising my grip at all.

Hooking yes. I just ripped my hands up a couple weeks ago because I used chalk and it f-ed my hands up. Now I'm recovering from it. Chins always kill my hands anyway. I just need to pummice the hell out of my hands to get rid of those calluses.
Can you 'splain this, please? I have no idea what that means - well, not as far as how it applies to lifting, anyway...... the OTHER meaning, I get!
Hooking = using a hook grip. It's a grip you use in olympic lifting where you wrap your hand around the bar w/your thumb on the inside instead of the outside.
if you tape your fingers, don't tape over the joints.
I taped over my joints by accident on saturday. I took the tape off, and my fingers were purple b/c the tape tightened and somehow bruised my fingers. They didn't hurt at all, but i figured the blood supply was probably cut off....

Thanks for the explanation (and the linky!) - looks like it hurts!!
