10/26 – Deadlift ME

Pretty decent day for pulls. Things weren’t feeling quite ‘right’ – hips and low back felt out of alignment so I focused on reps today. Elevated the weights ~3″ for these pulls (plates sitting on a single 100lb plate). Despite things feeling off, I ended up with some solid rep work that I am pretty happy with. After deads I did some light’ish shrugs to get the upper back some more work. Closed out with light ham curls, db curls (forearm slowly tolerating these more), and ab roll-outs. Did some ab roll-outs, which were super painful today since my abs are still real sore from doing them on Monday.
