    Power Grip – 4 x 4 x 5 secs
    Sock Stretch – 50 reps

    While I can’t do more than 4 reps I realised I can do an extra set to increase volume.

    Left: 53.8, 60, 59.2
    Right: 57.2, 58.1, 57.1

    Wow, I wasn’t expecting that. My previous best L & R was 55.5kg & 56.4kg, those were comfortably beaten today. I had 4 hours sleep and took paracetamol with caffeine in, not sure if that’s having a performance enhancing effect (the caffeine, not the sleep deprivation :-D).

    These were noticeably easier to close, but I didn’t want to rush out and add volume. I’ll add a rep next week if my new strength holds.
