Lol, I knew I wasn’t going to fail it. My previous max was 100lbs heavier than that. I was just testing the waters to see how my hip flexors were doing.

I saw a meet in January that has cash prizes so I’m pushing my training cycle back a month or so to compete there instead. This is an SPF meet also so I get to use knee wraps I’ll finish out this week of heavy singles and then I’ll start another short taper cycle leading up to the comp on Jan 10th. With cash prizes on the line I’ll bet I get to see some impressive lifters and that I’ll get to walk away empty handed haha. This also gives me some extra time to get down to 308 which is nice. I’d rather make weight without a water cut.
Tonight:
Stretching/Dynamic Mobility Stuff/Foam Rolling/Prehab Stuff for hip flexors
Heavy Bag
Simulated Title Match (12, 3 min rounds w/ 1 min rest between rounds)
Oh I wish my deadlift looked that pretty. Smooth as glass.

Thanks man!
That shit didn’t feel smooth or pretty when I was doing it though hahaha. For some reason deads always feel a lot harder than they look.

I totally agree. I’ll watch a set of mine thinking it was a horrible grind, but then it wasn’t nearly as bad as i thought. I try to use the previous vid to gauge what my next attempt will be.
You are always killing it brother! have you hit a 700lb deadlift yet? (Sorry, i can’t remember)
If not, i am definitely racing you to it!
I haven’t hit it yet but I am planning on getting it at my next meet. I would try for it now but I am afraid that if I do I won’t be able to get it at the comp. I’m probably just over thinking things but better safe than sorry! What are you pulling right now?
660 and climbing
Yea, you are right on my heels. It’s a race then?

These squats felt like shit but they don’t look bad. The new form is a lot harder than narrow stance low bar was.
