There was a lot of down-time in this WOD as I tried to will myself to wrap my hands around the pull-up bar or the barbell.
I probably should have done something else or scaled this back. I got through it, and managed not to tear my sissy hands, but felt it in my arms for days afterward.
I may be an experienced CrossFitter, but I'm also a 39-year-old guy who doesn't come from an elite athletic background, and probably doesn't train consistently enough to keep up with the young dudes who don't even bother bringing a shirt to the gym. This workout was a valuable reminder of that.
