well there was a few issues with it if you really look. Id say 400+ by the spring myself as long as the shoulder doesnt get pissed off. Also I need to but some lean tissue back on my arms,shoulder and upper back in that order.

Well im still tweaking a few things. But at this point I got my programming pretty much lined up for the present. FYI no more doing anything close to a actual max weight.I plan on sticking with my current established training maxes and slowly rebuild back up to pre injury numbers.
I have concluded that I am done over analyzing the dead lift.Screw it!! Anyone who has read my my blog in the past that deads have become my bitch lift ever since I got back into lifting several years ago.When I was a kid (20) I never concerned myself with every little detail and my pulls were better. I just basically just pulled in a way that felt natural with no thought of anything else. I will quote a Jim Wendler article posted on this site.

When my oldest son first saw me deadlift, he summed it up best: āYou mean you just pick the barbell up?ā While that should have been my eureka moment, it wasnāt.
The simple fix I made to the deadlift is to just be aggressive and pull like your life depends on it. I know you wish I had some magic geometric equation of your shoulder position and hip position as it relates to the humidity, but I donāt.
Stare at the barbell, hate the goddamn thing, approach the bar, hold your air, and pull.[/Quote]

I have only been in the business of picking up barbells for close to a year, but I definitely agree. All of my best deadlift sessions are when I get pissed at the bar,stomp my feet, huff, puff, and rip it.
I just count on my body to put all of the little things together and it always seems to pull through. When I find myself focusing on certain cues or moving a particular way I can never seem to pull as well as I can when I just go animal style.
Now I want a steak.

Exactly!! the only lift that has benefited from me being over analytical of has been my squat. Dead I can say with certainty has suffered from it.
