Ya, am empty bar felt really heavy to me at first too. I had to go to the barbie doll bar 😆 

Can you use wrist straps, my sis? Take it easy, strong girl 

barbie doll bar?! whats that? maybe i should be using a broom or pvc pipe 🤣  

thicc i actually was thinking about that after i did a few empty push presses... i used a cheap brace for golf yesterday and it gave me the confidence 

💪 

Nice 💪 

I was thinking same thing as thicmami. straps would probably be good.  

just ordered wrist supports. maybe I'll hop into q crossfit class next week 

has to feel good to be back at it again! wrist straps wouldn't help at all for overhead presses they help you be able to pull more weight than your grip is capable of. wrist wraps help stabilize the wrist and can be wrapped very tightly so the joint can't move around. powerlifters use them when bench pressing heavy weights. just wanted to clarifty that incase you do end up buying something wirst wraps would probably be a great idea and are pretty cheap. 

You are an inspiration! 

otb- i ordered wrist wraps :) thank you! 

sidnay...hardly... but thank you!  

also otb yes... i feel like now that i touched that bar, I'm going to throw myself right back into it...  

Keep slowly improving with that injured wrist & arm. And you play golf too !! That has been my "go to" sport since I injured my rotator cuff playing baseball in HS. Wasn't repaired until I was 50+, and still cannot throw. :)  

I have a set of those clamps, they've worked great for me!  

cb same color? lol 

bionici i wouldnt say i play... haha 

awesome work Kaylin!! protect the wrist, and do wrist warm ups, flexion/extension. you might be able to find some squish tension ball things, i used them in Occupational therapy for rehabing my wrist when it was broken.  

Keep crushing it!!!! 

dazey- yes! thanks! ive been using a little foam ball at work- its a promotional item turned o.t. item! hahaha
