jruck37 · 09-13-2006, 06:59 PM

That looks like a killer workout, fellas. Nice job.

Waittz · 09-14-2006, 03:41 PM

We decided to go today early in the most random of fashion. Unfortunately after my deads i was too spent to do anything else but i did manage to increase my 10 rep dead by 90 lbs in 3 weeks!

9/14
Deadlift
315x10
325x10
345x10
365x10

high pulls from the ground
100x10

at this point i couldnt do anything else atfer the deads but i was very happy with my lifts. Up one pound to 173 today. My deadlift progress is begining to scare me. Fresh off my SC joint injury 10 weeks ago i was repping 225x5...and today 365x10 on my 4rth set. This is it for 10 rep week. My next workout will be 5x5, kevin still has one more in the ten rep i beleive. The best part was not the weight or the amount of reps we lifted today. But having everyong at the gym stop what they are doing to watch 2 kids who weigh a buck 50 and 70 playing with such weight.

Mahler · 09-14-2006, 03:51 PM

Holy shit, Steve. 365 x 10 is insane.

Waittz · 09-14-2006, 06:40 PM

Thanks mahler, I gues im my own worst critic cause im not impressed. The rate of improvement is to me though. Ive gained 5 lbs on the scale but 90 lbs on a 10 rep attempt. Posting it again now in advance to make sure i do it. one week from now on 5x5 i want to start with 405. then 6x3 week 455. Ill be extremely pissed if i dont hit 500 before i weigh 180. And I guess kev is too busy at work to post his dead so ill do it.

Deadlift
275x10
275x11(never let me count for you)
280x10
285x7

if im wrong kev sorry, fix it. BTW this man only weighs 150 with a wet shirt and rocks in his pockets. Crazy.

Outta_Town · 09-14-2006, 09:49 PM

Haha. 275x11...Steve pulled a fast one on me and told me I had one left after I did my 10th rep.
To be exact it was...
Deadlift
275x10
275x11
285x10
295x7
I also did the following before I was too tired for life...
High pulls superset w/ static lunges.
95x7 40x10
95x10

The last time I did 4x10 deadlifts 4 weeks ago I finished my last set with 225.

elitefts.com sells it by the box.

Waittz · 09-21-2006, 10:21 PM

thanks man. As for todays workout, i think jumped the gun a bit and started too high.

Deads
405x5
405x5
405x5
405x3

First time hitting failure on deads. Made me feel sick to my stomach so i called it a day and jsut spent a good amount of time finishing my workout with core work. Takin the weekend off. Need to clear my head before thsi next heavy week.

Waittz · 09-21-2006, 10:27 PM

I guess on the plus side i found out i can lift 315 without straps n without an over under grip on my warmups. Feels like the bar will slip right from my fingers on the way down heh. crazy to think how just a simple change of hands can really affect the amount of weight you can hold. Thinkin of adding farmer walks week after next to get my grip up.
