Today’s Workout was in pairs

As one person rows 500m the other completes as many reps as possible (AMRAP) of pull ups. When the first person finishes their row they swap places, each person must complete three rows.Your score is your total reps for pull ups.
My Score:116 (40+43+33)
Rows were approximately: 1:50, 2:05, 2:00


Proper grip for Pull Ups.
Which I today, did not use. Usually my hands will split and start bleeding, but something different happened today
This:
Left

And This:

Right


Usually my hands are placed on the bar just along the line where my fingers start, this causes common calluses and some tears which are to be expected and sometimes some more "severe" I guess tears where a few layers come off and I will start to bleed. Really, this doesn't bother me because compared to the pains I like to call "Good pain" which is the pain you will usually get from working out, tired and sore muscles, even DOMS, the pain in my hands is nothing :) But anyway, how this happened? I placed the bar in the center of my palms, causing the skin to be pushed together at the base of my fingers, which temporarily was a bit of relief on my hands, but having all my weight on this grouped skin caused bursting of blood cells etc. etc. and hey presto Blood Blisters yay...

Note to self: Do not do that again!
