Deadlifts 6/20...
Tonight we did Deadlifts and it was NOT a good night for me. I was feeling off and not motivated from the beginning. And when your off you can sometimes fall victim to the math monster! That is exactly what happen to me, I completely added my working sets incorrectly and did not figure it out until after I finished them...all the while thinking the weight seemed light and I was feeling strong but I had 20 pounds less on the bar than I was supposed to have. BUT I finished all my accessory work and came back in Sunday to do my actual working sets and nailed them...still felt strong and weight felt light.

Squat Night!
Tonight was a successful lifting night!
It was a success for a couple reasons:
1. I completed ALL my work
B. I'm getting faster out of the bottom of my squat
3. I've learned how to control my depth on my squat
Gotta say it...I started a little too high with some of my weights i.e., Barbell lunges. I am now up to 95# and that is quite heavy. Damn you linear progression!
