 jerking is obviously great, Member 2521, 4714 posts SQ 235, BP 160, DL 290685.0 kgs @ 111kgs UnEq | Here's the story: 8 days ago I torn 1 callus doing farmer's walks. Cut off the dead skin and washed the wound. 5 days later it looked pretty much healed, so I did my deadlift session and it opened again. For my deadlifting session in 4 days time should I: a) Not deadlift b) Deadlift without straps as normal c) Deadlift with straps as this might stop the callus reopening? | ||
