Sumo DL - 2X5 135, 205, 1X3 225, 2X3 245, 2X2 275, 1X1 325, 1X1 355, 1X1 385 (failed)
DB rows - 3X5 85
Lat pulls - none because my shoulder told me not to
DB curls SS w/ BB curls

Ok, so I went contrary to Eric's advice. I had every intention of keeping things light, but everything was going very well. I had some of the powerlifters and personal trainers and other smart people standing around critiquing me when I was lifting...or watching, rather. Apparently I have the perfect build for sumo deads. We decided because of my early sets that it would be good to see what I could do. I had great form according to them and it felt good. I pulled 275 so fast that the weight bounced on the bar... 325 was very fast. 355 was medium speed. 385 was hard on my hips. I couldn't pull it & the limiting factor was my hips. Now I know where I stand. I guess I'll be adding in sumos from now on. Minus the hips, I should be able to easily pull +400. I'm more interested in PL anyway. I guess I'll do both styles.
