Deadlift week 1.
pulls. warm ups. work sets. All reps paused instead of TnG. 360x5, 405x5, 460x5, 460x7, 460x1 speed set.
bis, core, back xtn.
done.
not a bad workout. all time PR was a just under 2 months ago with 455x10 TnG. For the crappy bars/equipment etc and the fact I did the 5 set before, I was pretty happy with 7. Even more important, I felt strong through the whole set, never had any issues with hitting my shins like I had been, no hitching, didn't even stray towards breaking form. Everything just felt more technically sound, which is what I was going for. Things felt a little slower, but with some changes in form that was sort of expected. Overall a good day and should put me well on my way for peaking for this meet. Another good training session of deads on sunday at the gym at home, might hop up to my week 3 (95% or ~515x1+) and then hopefully the next saturday I will hit opener (7 days before the meet) and then deload up to the meet. Probably will do some more form practice after my squat workout this week. gona try and sneak it in on thursday sometime, maybe after my exph lab. might do dead form work first then squat. since I'm pulling on sunday I might have to keep it a little lighter. should be doing like 85% of 395 so 335ish for 5+, shouldn't be too bad.
