Hit 200 foils in one shift and my wrist still works somehow

I did a full head of highlights plus a partial balayage on back to back clients last Saturday and counted 212 foils total by the end of the day. My wrist didn't even cramp up which surprised me since I usually feel it after 150. Has anyone else hit a weird personal record like that where your body just cooperated?

Good thing carpal tunnel is way more expensive than a gym membership. My record is 180 and I was pretty sure my hand would file a complaint with HR the next day. Sounds like your body finally decided to let you have a win for once.

Joel, I get what you're saying about the cost of carpal tunnel versus a gym membership, but I don't see it quite the same way. Your body deciding to "let you have a win" sounds like you're giving it too much credit. More like it finally got tired of being ignored and forced you to listen. I've had my share of those moments where a workout pushes you to the edge, and it's not really a win if you're one bad move away from a serious injury. Sometimes the real win is knowing when to stop and recover, not just pushing through until something gives.
