A desperate and truly horrible five

Got the first four rattled off in next to no time, then came to a complete stop, I only know two words that would fit. One has been eliminated by my first guess and the other was my fourth guess.

So it was a word I had never heard of. Just guessed at the more likely letter and got lucky. I was seriously panicking. Horrible.

Another infernal word from wordle. I was certain my fourth attempt was correct and both shocked and dismayed when it wasn't. I guessed the answer by a process of elimination, there was nothing else it could have been. I am familiar with the word, but not the spelling, I know it as six letters. This sent me scurrying to the dictionary which to my surprise supported them rather than me. I did get the distinct impression though that morally they were on my side.

Last Monday, being a bank holiday saw my regular physio session cancelled and moved to today. My shoulder was rather terrorized by the man and is therefore giving me gym tonight. Steady as she goes then.

Had to slow after the third as I didn't realize just how many options there was. Realized there were only two so with three attempts left, no problem

I had a promising start, but then I got into a right pickle. Just couldn't suss it out.

Tried these on a whim tonight and they are not half bad., The feel quite smooth and force you to lower your arse. The problem is grip, straps are the obvious answer but I may experiment with hook first.

I stuck with the power bar with thirty two inch rings rather than opt for a weightlifting bar with thirty six.

I started with my index fingers on the rings and tried a tad wider on the last set on the advice of Handsome Jeff, and interesting evening but hundred was enough for the first try.
