The pulls felt pretty strong today.  Pull-ups, though, started to become painful around rep 4, so I had to stop.

Grippers have been aggravating my forearm/elbow lately.  I've been backing off a little the past week-or-so, and might just stop with something in the 115-range, as this is usually when it starts to cause pain.

Gripper reps felt OK today.  I am going to lay off heavier grippers until my forearm/bicep improves enough that it does not cause pain.

Everything felt pretty good today.  Or about as good as it's been in months.  I am still getting some minor-moderate pain on the kink, but nothing like the past couple months.  And for hours after the session, I had no lingering pain, which seemed to become the norm lately.

The 10" spike I bent was brutal.  It was from the same store and type as the very hard 12" spikes I've been bending.  I have't been spending too much time with braced long bar lately (too hard on body for year-round and expensive), but it felt pretty strong today.

I haven't really been able to do curls pain-free for a few months.  Today wasn't too bad.  I think, though, if I would have went any heavier, it might have started to cause more issues.  Pull-ups too, seem to be slowly improving.  The only pain I am feeling now with them is in the elbow-area and forearm near there.  Using elbow sleeves helps a lot too, which I'm probably going to start wearing these more consistently.
