This is the one routine in the Build Phase that I know brings the pain. In the past, I had to do what "John" on Segi's team did, and that was to use the Pull-Up assist. But today, I didn't use it, and I got through it, on all the variations. In the later sets, I did have to come off the bar to shake out my arms and back, but I did all the reps. I was actually pretty happy with that. I didn't go too heavy, but I think the weights I chose today were exactly what I needed to use. I had to push hard on the heavy sets for sure. I didn't have any problems with any move, but I was feeling the burn on all of them. If I were nit-picking, I guess I did have a little problem with 1,1,2 Hammer Curls. I was using pretty light weights, but I was having a tough time keeping grip with my left hand in the later sets, and especially the heavy sets. The dumbbell kept wedging out of my full grip. Another big Left/Right discrepancy.
In the end, I burned 802 kcals. It was a good, but brutal workout. I hope I don't get too sore tomorrow.
