Just let me know there are plenty in the city area as well !!!
Your in a good spot for lifting 
I like your ācardio.ā
Are you tallish?
High rep squats are my kryptonite, especially over the 100lb mark.

YAAAAY! Yes, please. When you get a chance, do share!! Iād love to get a proper trainer for when I start my 5x5.
MIM - Yeah, I like it too because it takes 15mins and feels great.
Nah, Iām a total shortstack. I barely reach 5ā2. Is there a correlation b/w height and high reps?
as I understand shorties squat better.
Ever seen a really tall guy squatting for the first time and falling over his praying mantis legs? Itās harder for them.

I think you would enjoy a trip to my buddy Joe Dās gym he is in NJ
M- its harder(but not impossible obviously) for taller people to squatā¦farther down to travelā¦
Iām 5ā9.3567479" 
HAHA! MIM, donāt even go there - Iām incredibly jealous of tall women. I always said, if I were tall Iād wear high heals for added effect. I bet you have legs that just donāt quitā¦
Training yesterday, I thought Iād get a clip of the DLs. I realized, however, that the camera is not possessed per se, just old, and doesnāt take videos longer than 15secs. But because Iām almost done with the program and will be starting the next one soon, I figured Iād get something up - if not just to show progress once I really get my lifts together.
DL 10x95, 2x6x115, 6x125, 6x135 < really trying on form here.
Pullups 3x2, 7x1 < Yay! got these back.
Rev Lunge with DB - 4x30, 4x35, 2x6x30 < the 35lbs were killing me and I couldnāt keep it elevated at all
DB push press - 4x6x25 < still hard, but got in 2 more reps
DB 1 arm row - 8x40, 6x45, 4x50, 6x45 < getting stronger on these, 50 looked sloppy, but I went for it
Hypers - 3x15x25 < used a plate on chest, would rather reduce weight and put behind head
Plank - 3x90secs < on swiss ball, 1 foot elevated. Fell off the ball on the last set, looked like a royal douche
I just saw Cbearās comments on MIMās log - I think a lot of that could apply to me re: keeping the bar close to legs, squeezing glutes, etc.
Also, I notice that I reset my hips, which is weird, is that wrong?
Lastly, since i knew that I only had 15secs to film I rushed a bit through the 135s. I donāt normally do touch and go, but reset. Eh, well.
Anyways, at least you all can have a good laugh
Tonight, sports conditioning. Tomorrow, spinning. Oh! and wasnāt able to get in a game on Sunday, no subs needed 
115
135
I canāt look at
your videos right now because Iām at work on my iPhone but here are some links to posts I have made about the deadlift
Both of those pulls looked good to me (but, as you know, Iām no position to give advice). Your back looked great in the 135.
The part about the sumo deadlift that Iām still working on understanding with my body (not just my mind) is the āpull backā instead of ābend over and pick upā. It looks to me like you are doing well with that, but Iām looking forward to reading knowledgeable commentary.
Way to go getting your pullups back! I am working hard on this as well.
With sumo spread the floor with feet and drive the hips and pull back ā¦
Cbear is excellent at sumo I would get advice from her And watch some of her videos on her hub

Not only sweet, but that is a powerful looking ass.
mascherano, it looks like you have good form, however, it looked like you were pushing through the toes a little bit. On the first video, it looked like the bar was a little too far out, start with the bar a little closer to you shins, that way you can drive through the heels a little better. Looked like you did that better on the second video, but still pushed through the toes a bit. To reiterate what Jim said, look at what cbear says on mominmdās log, and watch some of jims videos on some of the logs, he gives some really good advice. Happy training and keep up the good work. 
Here is another article that goes over training the individual parts that make up the deadlift:

thank you for the kind words
Here is an awesome video see how she loads the hips spreads the floor and pulls back
Jim - Again, thanks! Iāll check out the articles and watch the vids. So its ok to that youāre butt goes up when you pull, good to know. For some reason I thought you had to keep it in place!
Herc - Thanks for stopping by! Great advice - Iāve already checked out MIMās log and have taken note.
Kimba - YES! Everyone keeps saying, āpull backā and Iām still trying to figure out exactly what that means. If you figure it out and can explain it, do let me in. Also, thanks for the support girl!
Print - As per usual your compliments completely unnerve me. Thanks sexy!
Bobbi - Short and sweet(?). This is why I like you. Sleep tight.
Special shout to Cbear - bitch, youāve been referenced like 20 times! Thanks for the help mama!
As long as you are pulling back and shooting the hips all is good ā¦
if you ever decided to give up soccer and focus on lifting/figure type stuff you would be untouchable ā¦
