Deadlift Training
Mesocycle 21 - Week 1

Beginning Thoughts:
Just got back from the gym....I've had a really decent week. Next week is gonna be hell though. LOTS of assignments plus I have a huge 15 page paper due on Tuesday which I have yet to begin.
Workout:
Deadlift Warm-up:
Mobility Drills
135 lbs x 7 reps
245 lbs x 5 reps
295 lbs x 5 reps
345 lbs x 3 reps
385 lbs x 3 reps

Deadlifts:
425 lbs x 3 reps
435 lbs x 2 reps
445 lbs x 2 reps
445 lbs x 1 rep
465 lbs x 2 reps
After last week's Singles Session, I had to do some Quality Volume Training. This basically means you do 1-3 reps per set, start with 85% of your max (in this particular case) and you make small increments in weight while maintaining as much quality as you can. That is why after the 2nd rep with 465 I decided to call it quits.

Pistol Squats:
3 + 3 + 2 = 8 reps
Practice makes perfect and right now I need a LOT of practice.

Weird Ab Exercise:
BW x 7 reps
BW x 6 reps
BW x 7 reps

Hand Extensions:
2 bands x 20 reps x 3 sets

Deadlifts, Pistol Squats and Weird Ab Exercise:

I hope everyone's had a good week. Thanks for reading!!!
