Check out this lost video clip of my deadlift (285 lbs x 2) from several weeks ago.

Maybe Rich will get all the rest of my videos online sometime soon…  LOL  (And never mind all the face slapping - I had to psych myself up!)

Tonight’s workout by far has been the toughest. DEADS are really becoming harder and harder to do. I can do the same sets, reps and weight as I have been doing but now it is more draining on my system. I am VERY tired after DEADS. I may be dropping them soon.

The workout was intense, I started doing drop sets:first time ever doing them. I love drops sets and will continue to do them. They are a real butt buster for sure. By the 3rd set of my 3rd exercise, I almost lost my Xtend. That’s the closest I ever came to puking!! Watch out Arnold! LOL

Here is tonight’s workout.

1. Dead lifts - 15 reps (warm up), 4 sets 6  reps
135lbs..WU, 315lbs each set

2. Bent over barbell Rows … use smith machine - 4 sets 6-8  reps
225lbs each set. Last set was followed with 2 drop sets to failure with 185lbs and 135lbs

3. 1 arm dumbbell rows - 4 sets 6-8 reps
100lbs, 110lbs, 150lbs, 150lbs..(NEW PR!).. Last set was followed with 2 drop sets to failure with 100lbs and 60lbs

4. Wide Grip Pull downs … 4 sets 6-8 reps
130lbs, 170lbs, 200lbs, 250lbs..(NEW PR!).. Last set was followed with 2 drop sets to failure with 150lbs and 115lbs

5. BB2K DB Shrugs … 5 sets 8-10 reps
45lbs, 50lbs, 55lbs, 60lbs.. Last set was followed with 2 drop sets to failure with 50lbs and 40lbs. Check out this video of my shrugs:

6. Standing EZ Bar Cable Curls - 4 sets 6-8 reps
100lbs, 140lbs, 170lbs, 190lbs.. Last set was followed with 2 drop sets to failure with 120lbs and 80lbs

7. 1 arm DB Preacher curls - 4 sets 6-8 reps
20lbs, 25lbs, 30lbs, 35lbs.. Last set was followed with 2 drop sets to failure with 20lbs and 10lbs

I can honestly say drop sets are my new favorite. These babies will have your body screaming for mercy! Every muscle worked tonight is pumped, hard and I can tell they will be sore in the morning.
