Now that I cannot do gym lifts at all with my left, I am devising a routine that focuses totally on my right arm. I will post this routine when it is ready... I am a little excited about this just to see how far I can get before Nationals when the entire focus of my training is one body part. I once took about six weeks off from doing bicep curls with my left due to a minor nagging injury, but continued to do them with my right. I was shocked at how far my right had come by the time I started curling with my left again, and very glad I didn't just put the exercise off entirely for both arms. I hope your recovery goes well and I look forward to seeing you at nationals.

I have come up with a 3 day split that will have me training Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Hopefully I can get through it next week. I will be putting some stress obviously on a fractured pinky finger of my right hand so I hope it works out. All of this will be right arm training.
Monday will focus on backpressure (hammer type movements) and crushing grip.
Wednesday will be bicep and wrist.
Friday will be sidepressure and supporting grip.
Hopefully this works out. I am also going to clean up the diet and add in several cardio sessions. If I can't do all my gym lifts I might as well get in good shape.
What happens this week will determine if I will even pull at Provincials.
