I finally hit 200 trees in a single week, my back is done

Been climbing and pruning for 8 years now, never pushed past 150 in a week before. Last week we had a big storm come through Richmond, so I worked 6 days straight and logged 204 trees on my spreadsheet. Hit that number on Friday afternoon and just stood there staring at the tally, kinda shocked my body kept going. The money was great, but my elbows are screaming and I'm second guessing if the overtime was worth it. Has anyone else pushed way past their usual count and regretted it the next week?

Buddy of mine did the same after a hurricane, took him two weeks to recover.
