This was a pretty good session. This ends the first cycle of incorporating deads in the 3/5/1 routine. As I expected, hams/hips were feeling beat-up going into today’s workout, but I still felt very strong. Hopefully my hips/hams will adapt do this more frequent, higher rep, deadlift training. 600 was the target single today and it felt really easy. I’ve been trying to do more touch and go reps mixed in with pulls from a dead stop, so I did the first 4 reps touch and go, then let go of the bar, rested 5-6 breaths, then pulled it again. Good stuff. Sumo SLDLs felt good, but tough - back is very fatigued at this point. 45-degree hypers are great for the hams. I finished off with some landmine barbell twists. I haven’t done these before so it was nice doing something ‘new’ for abs.
