Workouts Lately
I am so pumped to be back in the game after so many weeks off nursing a shoulder injury. I seem to be all healed up and have eased back into it. Yesterday's workout was ca-razy in the best possible way. James and I are working to develop an app which would give you access to his programming, and exclusive yoga content to complement the workouts, so stay tuned for that. In the meantime, you can follow along on snapchat, where I usually share my workouts (@yogaby_Candace).
That workout was no freaking joke. I was sweating like a pig, and totally gassed. It felt so good to be back! And I am thrilled with how well my new Bose wireless headphones are holding up. I last wrote about them here when I first got them and I am still just as smitten. I love that I can just put my phone in my gym back and not have anything attached to me, as the headphones are bluetooth.
I scaled the last WOD for the cleans and push jerks going down from 105 to 65lbs to accommodate my shoulder. It feels mostly healed but I haven't done heavy cleans or jerks since I started back up so I really needed to ease back in.
Hand Care
My hands are getting beat up from the barbell but I refuse to wear gloves. I just don't like how they feel, and to be honest, I love my calluses. To avoid rips, though, Madison taught me all about pumice stone. It costs under five bucks and does the job. Use it straight away after you've showered and your skin is soft from the hot water. Gently polish the calluses with the pumice stone, and voila, you're good to go.
