Outdoor workout. I found my mp3 player, so I'm happy.
I ran to the school playground (3/4 mile) again, which was a mistake, since it's really hot (94 degrees).
Chinups, 54 @ 9x6 (50 last week)
TRX Pushups (13/12/10)
TRX Pistols (5/5/5/5)
TRX Flys (8/8)
I bonked bad about set 5 of the chinups. I basically abandoned everything else, sat in the shade to rest between sets, and knocked the last 4 sets out in the heat. I walked home and plopped down and ate and drank. I'm better now. It's still really hot, though.

I was wiped out for the rest of the day. Heat exhaustion, probably. I'm okay today, with the exception of these...
If I could redesign one thing on the TRX, it would be the location of the adjustment buckles. These are the bruises that result from the metal buckles pressing into my arms.

Are you going all wife-beater when you work out or wearing sleeves, just out of curiosity?

He was commenting about heat stroke, so I'm assuming that he was sleavless. Unless he was wearing a coat...then he's a tard  |

Are those from the pushups?
You're not supposed to let the straps touch your arms when you do them ... it helps work your stabilizers to have to keep the straps away from your arms.
See if that helps Fuzzy (like the peach)!

When you show up at work with mysterious bruises, people think you're badass.

Yes.
I'll try. I'm so used to the narrow, neutral grip pushup thing that it didn't occur to me to do them that way.

My son used to have really bad reflux and would head butt us in the chest from the pain. Once, a nurse was about to call the cops on me because my ex had really bad bruises. They didn't believe that the bruising was from my son. Luckily, he had an attack on the spot and removed the doubt (we got some medicine, too).

I'm sure you've got me beat with that back.

HA! That sucks. My sister was accident prone (really, holy shit) and had the hospital worried on more than one occasion. Once she was at daycare (where my mom worked) and fell and bashed her chin on the cement floor. Nasty. Took her to the hospital across the street, rather than the one near home that we usually go to. They got all snippity and crap wondering why my mom took her there, and was she hiding something. UH, it was ACROSS THE STREET!
My parents got a faster divorce by saying my mom beat my dad. lol. Battery is funny.

Prolonged or repeated pressure can break capillaries just as easily as impact can, and usually with far less pain. That's how I get a lot of my bruises.
