Felt good. Got the work done I laid out without any grinders although reversing those Zottman's on the way down were getting tough.

The beginning of a exercise challenge Jedd has fired up called #31daysofarms #augustofarms. Biceps, triceps, or both are to be exercised every day of August. I already do at least 4 days plus one arm wrestling day a week so I'll just throw in another two. Should be fun.
