Got a lot done last night.
warmed up with my normal 3 sets of 15 band pull aparts. while doing that, i was knocking out my 1,2,3,4,5 pullup/chinup ladders. Basically I would do a set of pull apart and then hit a full ladder etc. I managed to get 3 ladders complete before I started pulling on the bar. Today was my deadlift day, I will let you in on a little secret...I was a little nervous today. I have continually set my rep records so high that in order to beat it I have to continually add reps, oh by the way, the weight keeps getting heavier. I guess that is the point. I warmed up with a set of 5 at 155, and then I hit a set of 5 at 190 with my final warmup set of 3 at 230. I do have to say that the bar is feeling really light! they all felt like 135! Again, I mixed in a pullup ladder in there and then started my worksets. I keep my grip at double overhand with no hook grip to work on hand strength until the final set. My first work set was 250 for an easy 5. I thne loaded the bar to 285 for 5. After a good rest the bar was loaded to 325 for my all out set. I had to beat 12 for this one. I finished with 13, so now my next rep record is 14! Do you see what I mean. After that set I recorded my score and had another ladder or two to finish so I knocked that out. While unloading the bar I left it at 225 and figured that I would hit some stiff legged deadlifts. During my first set I liked the demand on my grip so I figured why not hammer it home with some shrugs too. I did three sets of 5 SDL+10 shrugs which felt good. Can't let the midline go so I did 100 leg levers (leg lifts) in 3 sets (50,40,10). All in all good workout!
