I was happy with the grippers last night. I had to tape my thumb skin that was torn from the Blob work; it didn't feel right on the gripper handle, but it is what it is. The 170lb CoC #3.5 is starting to feel better. I'm setting it better at the very least. I think gaining back some of the last little bit on the bottom end of the crush and having enough strength to show a good set (and still crush!) will be the deciding factors for me with the MM2. I still need work on both of those areas between now and then. Then being NEXT WEEK! Yeah...

The complex work is fun! Hard, but fun. I'm limited on time so I'm trying to stuff as much gym in as short a period possible. My hip is tight today, but hopefully some stretches tonight will loosen it up. If I can get a workout in like this 2-3 times/week, I'll be happy. The last few runs killed me, btw. I thought I was going to hurl. 1-2 minutes rest between runs. I was hurting. Bad.

I didn't have enough brain function left to weigh myself last night.
