Shockingly poor performance on the EMOM - sets of 10 press-ups this afternoon. Felt like I was doing reps of 12! Anyway, same form of floor to lock to floor. Time in secs remaining for each min.

42 - 40 - 40 - 41 - 39 - 35 - 30 - 28 - 22 - 12!!!

However, much improved dead-hang this morning (still with gloves) recording 1 min 58 secs! I just could not bully my fingers into holding out for the few secs more in order to hit the 2 min level. Interestingly, it was my left hand that was so sore as to be pretty much useless for anything for the next 5 mins, so presumedly some asymmetry in effort (which may open a window for improvement!).

The downside of these slightly sticky gloves is that once the bar is gripped it's then very hard to wiggle or slide the grip to even moderately receive the 'uncomfortableness'. A visible and loud ticking second hand on the clock is, for me, a definite aid as it provides clear feedback on the progress of time, while an out of sight silent stopwatch leads one's mind to sneakily warp (slow or hasten)time.
