Deadlift Day - Cycle 11

Deadlift Day
Cycle 11


Overall Impression:
felt kinda good today. workout was pretty good IMO. got everything that needed to be done, done.

on an off topic: i saw "never back down" on friday. kinda stupid movie but sort of entertaining. i saw "doomsday" yesterday. yuck. what a shitty shitty movie.
The Workout:
Deadlifts
- free hand squats and side lunges x 8 reps each
- 135 lbs x 2 reps
- 185 lbs x 2 reps
- 225 lbs x 1 rep
- 275 lbs x 1 rep
- 315 lbs x 1 rep x 5 sets
- 185 lbs x 11 reps
felt pretty good. my problem with 315 is that i cant clear it with an over-over grip. my new goal is to be able to do this with an over-over grip. i did not used straps on the first 2 sets. sets 3+ i used wrist straps. APT all the way

Bulgarian Squats
- 50 lbs x 7 reps x 2 sets

Hyperextensions
- BW x 8 reps x 2 sets
- Static Hold for 1 minute
the static hold was painful as i tried my very best to squeeze my glutes.

Ab Work
- Superset of Hanging Leg Raises and Overhead Plate Sidebends for 10 reps x 2 sets and 10 lbs x 10 reps x 2 sets respectively

Grip Work
- Dumbbell Static Holds w/ 70 lbs for 45 seconds x 2 sets
- EZ Bar Curls w/ 70 lbs x 6 reps x 2 sets
