DB Rows (no straps....grip is improving since I found an exacto knife capable of replacing my leatherman. callouses be damned)
Done alternating R and L, but will list by hand for sake of simplicity
R:
145x16
145x16
145x16
145x16
L:
145x7, 9
145x15
145x5, 11
145x5, 5, 4, 2
yes, clearly left hand is lagging, but rowing 145x16 is freaking hard, regardless. So I'm pleased.

How does one get rid of calluses bro? I'm slowly building up my rowing strength, but I'm already feeling my calluses acting up.
ReplyDeleteyou sliced them off with a knife/nail cutter. Just make sure you dont cut too deep, that's never fun, but it's a learning process.
ReplyDeleteok, thanks man.
ReplyDeletecheese grater, hacksaw, machete. you get the idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean by "calluses"? Rough and dry skin at the top of your palm (just below fingers)? If this is the case, then you are supposed to have calluses, and these should NOT be cut / sliced / whatever. To prevent calluses from tearing ...
ReplyDelete1. use chalk.
2. use hand-cream after post-workout shower.
This is important also to prevent skin cuts between your fingers.
