DEADLIFT TRAINING - Mesocycle 24 Week 3
This is last night's training. So as usual Saturday nights are Deadlift nights. Got Kanishk, Devraj and me all doing pulls. The only one missing was Bijoy. Hell, even Kaizzad sir turned up just to show off a 340 bench!
Deadlift Warm-ups:
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
415 lbs x 1 rep

445 lbs x 4 reps
475 lbs x 1 rep
455 lbs x 3 reps
485 lbs x FAIL
475 lbs x 1 rep
This was pretty insane. I think having this job tires me out so my form wasn't as awesome as I would've liked. Plus, 485 is 98.5% of my max....it would be hard for me to do that after doing so much other stuff in the 90%+ range. That last rep with 475 is what Devraj refers to as my accession into heaven lol...watch the video and you'll see why.
Overhead Squats:
135 lbs x 3 reps
Gym was shutting down and we had to call it quits.
Facepulls:
75 lbs x 15 reps x 3 sets
It was a pretty big day for all of us. Kanishk managed to hit a 315 Deadlift for sets of 2, 3 and 3. Devraj pulled his first ever 315. Devraj's gf pulled a 175. All in all it was a decent session.
