A challenging workout tonight with heavy lifts. First time for me benching with bands. Pin presses were heavy for a rather short distance, but providing an excellent burn! These were superset with T-bar rows. The pull ups were just to see if I could... and I did!
This was topped off by a sprint across the hospital parking lot in a pouring rain to visit a sick friend...
