Spring 2009 Training
Mesocycle 8 - Week 1
Deadlift Day
Beginning Thoughts:
I got only 4.5 hours of sleep the night before...I really wasn't in the mood to go lift weights last night lol... Workout:
Dumbbell Windmills:
15 lbs x 12 reps x 3 sets
I am getting better and better at this exercise..I'm gonna up the weight next time and see how it goes.
Banded Deadlifts using the White Bands Double Looped:
355 lbs x 0 reps <--- struggle set 1
315 lbs x 0 reps <--- struggle set 2
225 lbs x 2 reps
245 lbs x 2 reps
265 lbs x 2 reps
285 lbs x 2 reps
305 lbs x 2 reps
During the workout I was very frustrated with this because I felt like I wasn't in the groove properly. But upon inspecting the videos I think I was relatively alright.
Deadlifts:
345 lbs x 2 reps
385 lbs x 2 reps
315 lbs x 1 rep x 8 sets
I tried the over-over grip on 315. The goal was to do all 8 sets within a rest interval of 30-45 seconds. My back is incredibly sore right now...
Dumbbell Windmills:
15 lbs x 12 reps x 3 sets
Plate Pinches:
25 lbs x 20 seconds x 3 sets
Bulgarian Squats:
35 lbs x 7 reps x 2 sets Videos:
Banded Deadlifts & Deadlifts:
Overall Impression:
I am looking forward to this weekend...More sleep finally.
