Rack pulls and recovery...

Today whipped my ass even though it wasn't too much as far as lifting goes.  Was a pulling day, which I wasn't really looking forward to, I'm determined to get my back, uh... back, to where it was.  Oscar Wilde like wordplay there folks.  So today was rack pulls from the 2nd pins.  Puts the bar just a tad bit below my knees, so was a good height to pull from.  Ended up going decently heavy, for me currently at least, for six singles.  After that finished up with some light pull throughs and some recovery work, foam rolling, stretching, and the hydro massage.  To accomplish all this it required two gyms, fortunately, I go to two gyms and they're close.  Only numbers I'm really going to post up is the pull throughs since the recovery stuff is hard to actually quantify, although, needed.

I did use the squat bar for the pulls since I need to get my callouses back, it absolutely obliterated my hands, but you know, worth it.
