Back to Pulling

30 March 2016


I worked on my QL for a couple of days, and today was able to get some pulls in. Not just get them in, but actually hit the planned top set weight. So I'm very happy about that.

Pulls 455 lbs. x 2, 445 lbs. x 2, 435 lbs. x 2, 425 lbs. x 2, 405 lbs. x 2

All pulls were easy and explosive. I worked my way up very gradually so as to not aggravate my injury, and feel like I could have lifted more for my top set of 2 if I hadn't taken so many warmup sets. But overall I'm stoked I could deadlift at all.

In the interest of full disclosure, I used a belt on all sets from 425 up.

Smith machine bent over row 5x5

Leg curl 4s x 8

Leg raise 2s x AMAP
