Default Phase 2/Week 6/Day 3

  • Broad Jump - 5x5
  • Deadlift with Bar Slightly Elevated - 4x5x300lb
  • Dumbbell Reverse Lunge - 3x6x100lb
  • Pallof Press - 3x6x20lb

Deadlift was tough. Still using a mixed grip. I didn't do pallof press last week. The first two sets weren't quite right. The cable should be connected at waist level and I could only connect low or overhead. I got a bright idea and connected a chain hanging vertically from top one to bottom one and then connected the short chain to the D-ring to the middle of the vertical chain at waist height. Worked perfectly! Felt the burn in my core. Will use more weight next week.

BTW, I am not sure if I should double the weight for using two dumbbells or report the weight of a single. Since some dumbbell exercises use a single dumbbell, I am opting to report 2x. I may not have done this for previous log entries. I am doing this in my Gyminee log so that total volume numbers reflect the total weight lifted.
