30 min.

The chalk not only made my hook grip work, at last (plus I made sure to tuck the web of my thumb deep around the bar), but the hook grip also gave me good results on the DL.

The T-bar row was humbling, since it lopped off about 70 lbs. from my cable row. My mid-back is still sore, which is great.

In the same vein, my pecs are more sore than they've been in a long time--two days running now--, so I guess the flye-away did its job this time in spades.

My core and neck are also sore from what I did Sunday.

Training in the park today was fun. A father and his daughter were there trying to shoot a gas rocket, and a teenage boy was pitching baseballs at the tennis court fence. As I did my hammer throws, my daughter grunted and cooed in time. Nice cool, overcast weather. Thanksgiving weather.
