After a bit of a break, back again. Great – managed the full 9 cycles, just a few seconds over the 25 mins. Only one more to go Michael! — Steve
36lb. 9 rounds. Moves flowing nicely into each other now. Noticing left hand grip strength is … well rubbish (nails need to be short ladies!). Favoured form over increasing weight as advised. Smashed it.
