    a little late on the posting but it counts…7:55@225# rxd. Nice little triplet with a lot of grip strength work. 

  • Matt T

    10:13, @ 195lbs.on the dead lifts.  Should have incorporated band during pull ups. Need to fix my kipping technique.
    *Side note* coach Sully suggested I go to (EMS) Eastern Mountain sports to purchase some “rock climbers hand product.” I Tore the calluses on my hands pretty bad from pull ups. Any other suggestions?

    • Hall C.

      Matt,
      An alternative might a pair of inexpensive gardening gloves (they have them in black) from Home Depot or similar store. They cost about $3-$5. Another choice is a product called Gripad; a bit more costly at about $18, but similarly effective.

      As far as healing your hand tears, Sully was spot on with recommending mountain climber hand repair.  One I’ve used with great success is “Climb On!” – Put some directly on the open skin and overnight it improves dramatically…
