    How is the wrist and hip ? Years ago when I was a mechanic I had wrist pain, I was thinking carpal tunnel. I got through it wearing a wrist wrap with Ben Gay for months.

    Hey Jerry,

    The wrist thing was transient, as it always is. I've always had crappy joints, so I never know when something is going to act up.

    The leg, however, is definitely an adductor tear, which today began presenting bruising down my inner thigh. I started Rip's muscle tear protocol today. Not fun, but effective.

    Default 6/9

    Deadlift
    135x5
    225x5

    Tried these out to see what would happen with the adductor thing. It was sort of ok but thought I shouldn't load it much yet.

    Seated press
    45x5x3
    95x5
    115x5
    130x5 belt
    145x5x3 belt

    Squat
    45x20x2

    Yes, i pussied out on these instead of doing 3x25 like you're supposed to, mostly due to lack of conditioning and fear of not being able to move tomorrow.
    The first set began very painful then settled down to painful at about rep 10. The second set was just moderately painful, so definitely an improvement.

    Btw, a large area of bruising has begun to appear on my inner thigh. In case you were wondering, you know.

    starting strength coach development program
    Bench press
    45x5x3
    135x5

    Squat
    45x5x2
    85x25x3

    Brutal, but the injury no longer feels injured.

    Assume more squatting happened the other days but didn't make it in here.

    I was recently reminded it's actually the Starr rehab protocol, when I had it wrong the other day.

    And did I say brutal? Yes. Yes, it is.
