You could crush the slivers

Hand stands are hard as heck. I am impressed. 👍

Start against walls and work your way to vertical. I can't do them anymore and now I have plant on the wall I trained on, so I'm simply cursed to never handstand again

Hand stands are definitely an advanced calisthenics move. They are harder than muscle ups.

I can work my way up vertically to the point where my body is parallel to the wall but as soon as I push my toes off the wall, I lose balance immediately. Maybe I'll try to do them again

I cut my hands up on the monkey bars again. There was no blood this time but I have three nasty little cuts with the flaps of skin hanging off of the palm of my left hand and one cut on my right hand.

are they wrapped with barbed wire

I put a couple of bandaids on them but they came off when I washed my hands. I did 21 pullups today but I had to stop because the cuts on my palms were hurting and I didn't want to mess up my hands even more.

I'll probably just do push-ups for a couple of weeks and wait for my palms to heal up properly.

Sounds like you should wear gloves

My hands have healed up.

I usually can only do about 70 pushups. Today I pushed myself and did 88 pushups. I was originally going to stop at 75 but I had the strength to keep going. I was grunting very loudly and expectorating on the floor while doing the last 10 pushups. I think the grunting and slobbering somehow gave me extra strength.

Then I ate 5 ice cream bars.

thats impressive...... for a WOMAN

Two hundred is ideal. But I think 88 in a row is better than most dudes I know.

Yelling during workouts is proven to make you more powerful

my left hand/wrist is bruised/sore/stiff

That sucks. Have you recovered yet?

My hands are doing fine right now.

my wrist has been hurting lately. not quite hand health thread but I didn't want to fragment the hand health userbase across multiple posts
