You tubed down the redneck riviera (Crystal River) with a case of beer didnt ya? lol

Alright.

Between travel, what may or may not have been strep, and my wife on modified bed rest, I haven’t lifted in like… forever. I’m a bitch I know.

Anywho, if I missed anything let me know.

Happy with session, my back, hams and glutes feel fried. Two weeks now of band deadlifts.

Video of 475 double:

Here was my top set for deads, just wasn’t feeling it, and everything felt heavy today. I’ll leave the rest in my log.

skip to approx 50seconds

Just been winding down before my first meet this weekend - worked up to a comfortable 220kg/485 last night…doubled an easy 475 at the end of last week too.

Pulled 555 last night. Vid’s in my log if anyone cares

Here is my deadlift from my first meet -

232.5kg @ 92kg bw

hard work starts now!

Sorry, been MIA guys.

I’ve been sick and lifting last week made it worse. Doc and wife flipped out, and I been laying low since.

My pull has felt like garbage lately thats my update

Got a much cleaner 585 today. All the extra glute and hip acc work seems to be paying off.

Still counting - 510 lbs

I plan on hitting my deadlift hard now that strongman Nats is over. 600 should go quick :slight_smile:

Not a standard dl but proud of this lift and thought I’d share as it was HEAVY and I am pretty sure i am the only sub 600lb deadlifter that got a rep on it lol

yo, are you dropping a tooth at 0:15 or is that (hopefully) just gum?

gum lol a tooth would be hardcore though. I chew gum during comps to try to stay calm forget to get rid of it before I lifted this time though.

Update Pulled 405 rack pull from 17.5 (below knee) with short strong bands last week. it was brutal. Measured it to be 115lbs of tension at the bottom and 250 at lockout!

Saturday Deadlift training - YouTube

BUMP:

So, anbody still doing this???

12/31/11 Ringing in the new year at the gym. So, having the internet available, I found out that I am only 20 minutes from Metroflex DFW midcities. FUUUUCK YESSSSSSSSSS!!!

Deads:

Video:

135X8
225X5
315X5
405X3
495X3
525X3 Boom. Felt ok, but my lower back was fried for some reason.

Dumbell rows:

50X10
100X10
120X5
150X5
180X20. Kicked ass. As I got done with these, the owner came over and said “You’re the first one to use those. I’ll get some heavier ones made later this month.” We then shot the shit about lifting for a few minutes. This place kicks so much ass its not funny.

Chins/pull ups:

4 sets of 5 alternating grips.

45 degree back raise:

3X10

Curlzz for the girlzz:

someXsome

Tire flipping and hammer strikes:

someXsome.

This literally made my week. Fucking awesome. I now hav eno need for headphones in the gym as the place blared hard rock/heavy metal the whole time I was there. Epic.

METAL:

I’m still in Dove, just been away in December for the holidays.

Oh i still plan on pulling 600! My deadlift is slowly coming back up it was worse off than I thought but i pulled an easy 455 Saturday my low back is slowly getting strong enough for heavier weights again

I’m in. 555.

Hit 455x10 last week, which was a new PR…not going for a single for a while probably though:

I pulled 605 for real recently:
