Read about lots of people maxing on DLs , including a girl at my gym that just got interested in lifting a year ago and .. despite a broken back maxed at 120kg twice now. Since she's heavier than me, I can beat her provided I get 110kg up.
I'd planned for a 105kg max next week but thought to try for a 110kg one sooner. That was a bit too large of a chunk to bite off.
The real max attempt will happen next week but I got tempted to try already today. Failed at 110kg, but got 3 reps out of 100kg (220lbs) in the set before that one.
Which is actually a PR for reps and should represent a 1RM of 111kg. So, theoeretically I should manage that 110kg. If I just do it smart enough.
I'd just done triples in the preceding sets and also had supersetted (slowly) with chins, plus I'm having a cold.
Next week I'll ditch the chins and save energy by doing a 3-2-1 wave and see whether I'm getting that 110 kg baby up .
What would work better with a 3-2-1 pattern?
90-95-100
100-105-110
or something like
85-95-105
90-100-110
