Notes: Weight was feeling heavy today. It was time to rest. Got too greedy. Can't be a hero all the time. Lockout strength is weak, back is rounding too much, and have no leg drive. Need to add deadlifts from a deficit. Working on the lockout strength with reverse band deadlifts.
You're my hero :DYou deadlifted a quarter of a ton. Think positive.
ReplyDeleteupper back strength might help too a la Kroczylinski or however you spell his name.
ReplyDeleteYeah? Anything in particular you suggest?
ReplyDeleteI was about to comment about the leg drive when I saw that you already noted it. Are you planning on starting lower? I know the tendency is usually to go *too* low and to almost squat it up, but to me, it looks like the height of your glutes are forcing your back to take everything.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I figure the deadlifts from a deficit are going to be a big contributer towards working on my leg drive. I have a stronger PC than my quads, and have been over compensating. I used to "front squat" the deadlift, and it might be good to get back into that habit, haha.
