progress update
« on: July 07, 2006, 02:36:30 PM »
for my deadlifts...a few of you remember a few weeks ago i started deadlifting...well i couldn't pull 450 like it was nothing..and could only get reps of 3 and 4 out of 405

well today i hit 405 for 9 reps!!! i was ecstatic!


so i figured hey if i can get 9 for 405 then i can try for another 450 attempt and i got it...5 times!  :D ;D  thanks for the help guys! in another month i'll have 500!


there is something to take a note of though...i'm doing these starting from just below the knee stiff legged...not from the ground so i'ts not a full deadlift.  :-\

how old are you texas, because if your young and full of test ill be ok but if your old and moving that much in only a few weeks of rack deadlifting i may have to go shoot myself..:)

me too. Rack deads is like a half bench in my books.  good pull man but I'd rather hear 9 reps of 405 from the floor.
