Deadlift Training
Mesocycle 19 - Week 1

Beginning Thoughts:
Just got back from the gym...So tired!
Workout:
Deadlifts:
415 lbs x 3 reps
455 lbs x 3 reps
455 lbs x 3 reps
435 lbs x 3 reps
435 lbs x 3 reps
The goal was to add density to today's training in comparison to M18 W3 Doubles training....My grip was better than last week but it gave me some trouble on the last reps of every set. Lots of rest in between sets - over 10 minutes every time. This workout took a lot out of me.

Hand Extensions:
2 bands x 15 reps x 3 sets

Swiss Ball Jack Pikes:
Skipped
Videos:
Deadlifts:
Overall Impression:
So I ran this little experiment. I can't help but sleep on my stomach spread eagled on the bed. I just cannot sleep in any other position. But, this awkward position has lead to some hyperextension of the back at night and it's been affecting my negatively because I've been experiencing some back pains - lower back tightness and easy fatigue in general. But, over the last 10 days I have struggled and tried my very best to sleep strictly on my back and it's been a pain in the ass but I have managed to sleep in that fashion for almost all the nights. And I could REALLY sense the difference right from day one actually. Almost NO lower back tightness! I hope this lasts. It's not a big deal but I hate sleeping on my back. Zero comfort.

I hope everyone's had a good week. My weekend has already begun!
