Had a hard time with this today. Wanted 360 x 4 but after that first grind I knew there was no way I was getting more. Tried another single but it crushed me. Not sure what's up, have felt tired since last Thursday's leg workout. Will either deload or start this cycle over next week. Probably should deload. Test max deadlift on Friday.

YEAH! Didn't know what to expect after my squats went so badly on Monday, but these all moved better than I thought they would. Felt so slow during the reps but in the vids the bar speed looks ok. Moved DL day from Friday to today, will test squats again on Friday.

First time doing these, they feel great for training form. Set of 7 looks a little high though they felt deep as I always go, and I never see poor depth in my normal sets.

Starting 6th cycle a day early. Same weights as 5th cycle on squats, since that lift didn't improve. 295 moved better than this workout last cycle, so maybe that's promising. DLs moved pretty good, though form broke down a bit at end of second set.

Might have had more on squat, but the new rack at different gym just didn't feel right. Had a clumsy re-rack when I couldn't get one side of the bar on the g*ddamm hook, reminded of Chris Duffin and that monolift fail, with about 500 pounds less. Cut it out of video. DLs went pretty good, added a set for the f* of it.
