Take That Deadlifts! New PR!
Despite still not being 100%, GJ and I have both been antsy to get a workout in, so we did. Yeah, had to cough a couple times after sets catching my breath, but that didn’t stop me from going all out on it! Just took plenty of time to recover between sets. I was getting really tired before my last 2 sets so instead I went for a max attempt on my last set. Despite starting to lose my edge I still got a new PR!
Deadlifts (Warm-Ups, 8-10 reps) 3-4 Sets: 95/135/185/225
Deadlifts (Heavy) 4×5-8: 275/295/315/400×1 (Max Attempt)
Military Press (*2 Warm-Ups) 3×10: 95/105/115
Squats 3×12: I don’t think so…
Side Laterals 3×8-12: 17.5/22.5/27.5×9
Dumbell Front Raises 3×8: 22.5/27.5/27.5
Upright Rows 3×12: 60/70/80
Squats on the same day as Deadlifts… Hmmm. Plus they’d typically be done the day before. Yeaaaaaah, thinkin’ no. I won’t plan on doing those with this workout. It takes long enough to get through the deads with adequate rest times. Anyhow…
Hopefully the last of this crap clears out of my system soon. GJ is getting the aid of antibiotics and still trailing my progress to wellness by a couple days. I just hope I can get a good night’s sleep this evening.

I do deads on leg days with my squats and lunges. Yeah, I’m goofy like that.

Hey Adam! Congrats on the 400 DL … most impressive bro! Haven’t seen the usual on the C3 forum. I bet you are caught up in college final exams, huh?
Continue to be relentless …
