I did something yesterday but it isn't noteworthy enough to post. Rowing and some Rec Center climbing wall.
Today was a short time of ARC on the EZ side of my climbing wall here at home.
Then some stretching and floor work - need a lot more of this!
Then some Dumbbell curls to see if the elbow was going to even allow me to do curls. Just 30# bells for 15 reps each hand and elbow was just fine. I haven't been able to do straight bar curls for many years because of my elbow but EZ Bar has been fine until recently - stupid elbow. Oh well Dumbbells still work.

KB Swings - 16 - 32 - 24K x 20 each
Seated Calf Raises - 170# x 45 x 1
Hanging bicycle - 50 reps counted each left foot rotation - just a little different than the leg spreads
2 3/8" DB Handle @ 110# x 5 each back and forth reps - felt very solid - (as it should at that
weight :) )

Axle Wrist Curls - 165# x 4
Reverse Wrist Curls - 55# x 8
Axle Wrist Curls - 165# x1 good + 1 cheat (tweaked right wrist a little)
Reverse Wrist Curls - 55# x 8
Behind the back Wrist Curls - 165# x 10
Reverse Curls - 75# x 8
Behind the back Wrist Curls - 165# x8
Reverse Curls - 75# x 8
Levering - 8 all ways including rotation today - palm is good enough to allow them now
Weight a little too much today - I need to get 6 at least on the first set of regular wrist curls if not the second. The Axle stresses my wrist in a not so good way - I'll try it a few more times but may have to go back to my other bar at this weight. The jump from regular bar at 150# to 165# on the Axle was too much I guess.

Every year in January I try to get the Qualifying Standard for Masters Worlds in Olympic Lifting for my 70 x 70 list. So this morning (with no practice since last January) I did
***Squat snatch - 20-30-40-50-55 - 60Kilos by a miss ***
***Squat clean and Jerk - 55-65-75-85Kilos by a miss ***
Both of these are on the 70 x 70 list
***This also gives a total of 130 kilos - well over the Qualifying Standard for Masters Worlds***
I think I could improve these a little with a few weeks of practice on the lifts
Axle Wrist Curls - 65K x 8
Reverse Wrist Curls - 50# x 12
Axle Wrist Curls behind the back - 65K x 15
Reverse Curls - 70# x 13
Levering front and back

Started this program 12 - 14 - 17. It was a straight linear progression and worked for about 3 weeks like I expected. I want one more (at least) Power Forearm workout to get the 150# Wrist Curls done but it's time to figure out what to do now to keep progressing. Some exercises have reached my current strength limit and some have a "don't flare up old injuries" limit. Time to put the ole thinking cap on and see what shakes out for the next 3 or so weeks.
Power Forearms
Wrist Curls - 150# x 6
Reverse Wrist Curls - 50# x 8
Wrist Curls - 150# x 4 - not recovered or just too heavy? We'll see next time I guess.
Reverse Wrist Curls - 50# x 8
Behind the back Wrist Curls - 150# x 8
Reverse Curls - 70# x 8
Behind the back Wrist Curls - 150# x 8
Reverse Curls - 70# x 8
