I felt like I was going to pass out in there! Man, I was gassed! I thought it was a solid workout...again, not pushing myself too much until I get my feet back on the ground. Looking back on it now, I realize I didn't do any direct biceps or triceps work. Bummer.

3" Wrist Roller is MONEY. Total cost is around $4 for this implement. I made it out of some PVC pipe and rope. I used it over a safety pin in the squat rack at shoulder height and just went light. Easy on the recovering left hand; it's a little sore, but no sharp, stabbing pain so I'm happy about that.

I was just messing around with grippers this afternoon. No structured workout, just messing around and I was able to close my choked BBE (around 170) with my right hand. It wasn't easy, but I got it closed. More serious choker work to come while my left hand heals up.

BW - 232lbs.
