Drytooling and deadlifting

October 24, 2009

Drytooling at the Playground

It’s the time of year when the weather can’t decide if it is fall or winter.  The Playground is good fun.  My psyche for ice/mixed is back!

Afternoon Workout

Deadlift 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

What I did:

10 @ #135, 5 @ #225, 3 @ #315, 1 @ #365, 1 @ #385, 1 @ #405, 1 @ #415, 1 @ #425

This was my first time trying for a 1 RM deadlift.  I didn’t try to go any heavier because my head felt like it was going to explode on the last lift.  It’s probably a good thing I left something on the table judging by the video.  My technique is horrible and my math was even worse (I thought I was lifting #415 but it was actually #425).  Thanks to Will for the video and encouragement.
