Deadlift Night

Tonight's workout:

Warmup - stiff leg deadlift with bar, deadlift with bar, deadlift with 95 lbs.

set 1: 135 x 8

set 2: 165 x 6

set 3: 195 x 3

set 4: 215 x 2

set 5: 225 x 2 (new personal record)

set (rep) 6: 225 x 1

set 7: 215 x 2

set 8: 185 x 4

set 9: 135 x 5

Single-legged Romanian Deadlift:

1 - left leg holding a 25 lb dumbell in each hand x 11

2 - right leg holding 25 lb dumbell in each hand x 9

One-arm power snatch:

1 - left arm x 10 w/ 40 lbs

2 - right arm x 8 w/ 40 lbs.

Good stuff, I wanted to established a good estimate of my 1rm, which I will say is 235 based on today's workout. For my next workouts, I'm going to notch the weight down and begin working on building up my working capacity and strength in this lift and really focusing on improving my form.

peace
