Pulling - Slightly Better

11 October 2014


Deadlift 135x5, 225x3, 315x2, 385x1, 415x1, 435x1, 455x1, 475x1

This still felt heavy, but much better than last week. I didn't feel a significant difference between 385, 415 and 435, then 455 felt like 500. The extra upper back work is definitely affecting pulls, but it should be worth it.

Also I think I started the cycle too heavy, I'm only on week 2 (of 12) and my heaviest single is already only 35 lbs. under my max.
