Week 2 Day 2

Blob w/ Left - another really strong day. Definately held it for 1 full sec two times. Progress. I keep on feeling stronger. I'm convinced that after this is done i will lift the blob with my left. Especially considering my blob is not extra slick.

Grippers w/ Right - better then yesterday but still weak. I closed the #4 two different times (while pushing against my leg of course). I need someone to see it because it feels like it closed but i'm not 100% positive. Then on my last attempt while pushing against my thigh, i rolled my wrist and dropped the gripper. It does not hurt but i'll know more in the morning.
I still have a hard time with the negatives on the #2. Even with help closing it it feels like its coming open. I can't win. Maybe i should use the #200 for these?
Tape on the gripper is still helping alot, i mean they still hurt but not nearly as bad.

I think my right will benifit from this as far as blob work in concerned because i am doing the thumb exercises the same with both hands. So the Blob thumb exercises are over riding the thumb exercises from the gripper KTA.

I broke a key today. I've bent one in half before but these are tough little buggers. This time i just kept bending it to about 45 degrees, flipping it over and bending to 45 degrees int heother direction. After about 5-6 times it just snapped. I've tried that before but it hurts so much after the first time i could not keep it going. Now i think i can do it better knowing what it takes to snap them. Good training for the walnut.
