I have been doing it for a week, and I have some comments. I don't know if the picture in a book I have is different than your guy's plan for deadlifting but when I do it like it says my thighs are the ones that get the work out and not my back! So on Monday I just did barbell rows while bending over and it worked my lower back.

I am worried to go in tommorrow because I have to benchpress and I can barely do anything on it and it makes me feel so embarrassed. I can do a bunch for biceps but not benchpress. What should I do? I put 25 lbs on each side and it was hard doing 12 reps each time.

Is it ok also if I am doing the pyramid scheme for all these?
