Rest day…Whew!
What not to do. Take care of your hands, PERIOD. When this happens it sets back your training. So, in conclusion…DON’T DO THIS!

Had a great celebration dinner after completing Angie, Fran and Murf back to back? That celebratory drink just might turn into 3 or 4. Better check into the Matternhorn Inn and Suites. No reason to drive your car into the gorge, the Matterhorn is right off Main Street. You could even get there doing the bear crawl!
Seems like yesterday.
There is a misguided notion out there that calluses are a good thing. The truth is that if you have a hard spot on your skin and then expose it to friction it will grip will your hands still rotate on the bar; hence, the foto. Keep you hands soft and shave your dead skin off. Or you could use Vasoline. It will reduce your numbers and get your grip stronger but your ego will suffer. You really have to ask yourself why you’re doing it.
I think that picture was taken my first week into the journey, I had soft tender skin, much like my tight firm bottom. I am and avid sander now and have been tear free since. Vasoline, I thought I saw a jar in one of your videos. I’ll have to give that a try.
