Setbacks can be huge steps forward
I always said that a person's perspective is what sets them apart. Champions from participants. Warriors from ordinary. Whatever comparison you want to use, really. Its not about what cards you are dealt. Its how you play them.... I'm no champion and I'm no warrior, but I strive to always press forward toward my goal, even when I have setbacks. This time it is a broken finger, and this time the setback has been pretty freaking awesome. I broke my finger on Thanksgiving morning playing flag football. At first I was aggravated that I'd likely miss 8 weeks of training. After taking a weekend to let the swelling and pain subside, I went online and bought some hook grips. As long as I keep my hands open and disengage my finger flexion, I can do whatever I want. The wrist straps have their limits, but this is proving to be a great boost to my mass phase. I can't deadlift because these straps won't support that much weight. Pullups are testing the limit
