Deadlift 495 today
Deadlifted 495lb.s for 2 reps. Body weight up to 196. Entering my third week back of hard training. 495lb. deadlift not bad for a 40 year old I guess. Saw stars on the 2nd rep. Felt great. This was the last set on a great hamstring/delt workout. Just wanted to share. Thanks gang.
