Thanks, LC. I hope you heal up soon. I hate injuries too. (I didn't like it when I strained my right lat muscle a month or two ago).

Hum... I felt tired today during this workout... I think those deadlifts yesterday took more out of me than I thought... Oh well, it's only hindsight.

[b]DB Lateral Raises[/b]
15 x 15
I just wanted to end this workout quickly. So, I did my raises in one set as long as possible. I was very exhausted. I think the suckiness of my diet yesterday contributed to my lackluster performance today.
Good stuff mate! One thing seems weird to me but - that you can sldl 225lbs x 5 but you deadlift max (conventional) is only 255lbs.
[QUOTE=dparm99]Good stuff mate! One thing seems weird to me but - that you can sldl 225lbs x 5 but you deadlift max (conventional) is only 255lbs.[/QUOTE]
Thanks.
Well, I last attempted a conventional deadlift max about a month ago. I am still working on my form on my deadlifts. I'm stronger at sumos than conventionals still.

Beat me to it. Can't wait to see what the big pull is like.

Yeah, they tend to do that ;) Whenever I pull max singles, my workouts for the next few sessions usually aren't at 100%. Wait a Couple of days and you'll feel good as new.
I'm going light (well, trying to get all 10 reps for 5 sets) tomorrow for my legs. then it's 2 days off.
:)
