Notes: I know no one else will count that 15th rep, but it's ok: I will. Pleased with that effort, as demonstrated by the moonwalk. Also a lifetime PR no matter how you stretch it, because the most I've hit was 14 before, and that was with a similar hitch at the end. To hit a clean 14 and grind for 15 it showing some growth, especially as the bodyweight drops. Warm-ups felt awesome too; taking the chains off had me moving fast.
Beast mode: that mode where you work so hard the controls get reversed!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, great work. I knew when I read you were planning on a 495 AMRAP deadlift that I was going to be watching something good.
Much appreciated dude. Definitely a weird sensation for me.
DeleteOh yeah, I can imagine.
DeleteI have had a few workouts like that, where I hit squats hard enough that my legs refused to work and I was questioning my decision to powerlift in March. Also yesterday hit 270x18 on leg press after a set of deadlifts and other stuff and had to roll out of the leg press. But yeah, nothing that crazy.
