Bench day, broken bands, tore up forearms...

Not gonna sugar coat this... typing this is a bitch right now.  My forearms are killing me from using the grippers I got for Christmas today.  So this will be fun.  Today was a different kind of day, a lot different, a little fun, and some new stuff.  Also, my shoulders and chest are sore as hell from the bamboo benching.  Had a band break so had to add weights to the bar to go along with the 20 pound kettlebells... which, damn... as much as I can bench and that less than 200 pounds on bamboo bench completely destroyed me... anyway... lets drop some numbers...


Bamboo bench 135 + 40 pounds of kettlebells  Sets of 8, 7, 8, 6, 10

Riposte Grenade Grip pressdowns 50x7, 40x10, 40x9, 30x15

Then moved to grip work, this involved the 200lb grippers and a hex dumbbell hold.  Closing then holding it closed for as long as I can or 10 seconds all while holding a 25pound hex dumbbell in the opposite hand. 

After this, just did one static hold from the chin up bars. 

Thus my forearms being trashed.  I'm gonna wrap this up now...
