Deadlifts From Today and One More Tip

                                        
                                                                         555x8

I did 135x5 225x5 315x5 405x5 495x5 555x8. Then 3 sets of 12 with 245 on the bent over row.

One tip that I neglected in the previous deadlift article (thanks for reminding me, Brady) was to pick your big toes up when you set up. This puts you in a perfect position to sit back when going down to the bar.

All About Being a Lifer

What's a Lifer? Someone who isn't in to something for just a day, a month, a year...it's for life. Whether its training or your family or your job...it doesn't matter. You work at it, you build on it, you see the big picture . You don't miss workouts because it means something to you. You are like a Shakespearean actor- no matter what is going on in your life, you block it out when it's time to train. You walk into the weight room and all else disappears. Worry about it later.
