Moleskin:
Great to be back with the Woodshed pax. Everybody worked hard today and got better. It can be a little intimidating to get hit with a PFT when you aren’t expecting it, but hopefully the Woodshed pax will embrace some sort of PFT as a metric for keeping track of their progress.

72 Push-Ups; 51 Sit-Ups; 15 Pull-Ups
Great workout today HeeHaw. I got 72 push-ups; 68 situps; 15 pull ups total, but only 11 before I rested in the down position, which I think means I only got 11, but I’m not sure.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure I got more than 15, but I know my feet touched the ground after 15, so that’s the number cause that was the Standard
40 / 47 / 1

On the bright side, the doc cleared the shoulder for more work provided I watch the form and the impact.

I’ll have to figure out how to do some form of a pull-up. My GI Joe genetics (rubber band shoulders) have me too paranoid to try. The last time I hung from something it took me 15 minutes to figure out how to get down, then another 5 minutes to put my shoulder back in socket…
Bad news first… 34 – push-ups; 30 sit-ups; 0 pull-ups due to focusing on not splashing Merlot
Good news… just getting back after a bought of injuries
