Ahh, pretty damn good workout today. My hamstrings are pretty sore from squatting Monday. My upper back is just a wreck from all the shrugging on Wednesday. Despite all this I somehow killed deadlifts today. Second time pulling this month, and second or third time in a year basically. I’ve never done anything for more than 5 reps with 600+ on the bar, and when I’ve done 5’s its almost always touch and go with maybe the first rep or two deloaded. This time I deloaded every rep for 3-5+ seconds between pulls and killed it. Maybe had 1-2 more reps in me. Touch and go I would have done way more. This has me feeling really confident about my pulling abilities right now. I’m not sure where I would ‘max’ at, though. Reps can be deceiving - at least for me. After pulls I did some ghetto GHRs and some obscure ab work. A few sets of turkish getups with the barbell, and then some straight leg situps holding a barbell at lockout. Nice movement.
After lifting I decided to jog a mile for some reason. Dumb idea as my legs were totally gone, but it felt good when I was done.
