No way - deadlift eats me alive and I can only do a few of them. I’d call it a day @ 455x5x1 set and have done so in the not so distant past.

I’m just exhausted by the time I get to the floor presses and they are showing it. I need to figure out something to help that out.
Nice job on the rack pulls. That would have me fried right there, but you were able to go on to pressing some more.[/quote]

Thanks, LS. I’m just trying to catch you strong mofo’s.

It’d be cool to see an updated avatar. I bet the current one no longer does you justice.
The ham and legs workout! Great job!

After asking Dr. Meat about ramping I am giving serious thought to ramping my 5x5 in the manner he suggested.
You are moving some serious weight around. I agree with kmc on the rack pulls. Good work.
