Deadlifts

Workout 18 December 2009:

Deadlift seven sets of one rep

Results: 205-225-235-245-250-255-260lbs
Previous best: 235-255-275-295-310-320-330lbs (5 Mar 08)

Since my back's been feeling pretty good, I went after some heavy deads. I'm still a far way off from my best lifts, but I'm up another 15lbs from the last time I lifted. I'm aiming for about 10-20lb increases each time I do this workout. The lifts went well and I'm sure I could have pulled more weight, but I'm not risking going too heavy. I again focused on proper form: maintaining a lumbar curve, shoulders directly above the bar on the pull, and driving from the heels.
