Heavy dead-lifts tonight translated to a triple at 90% of my 1RM. By the numbers it was a good session tonight but it did feel a little grindy (yes I know I made that word up). The positive is that I am still 4 months out from Nationals so I am more than happy to be pumping these numbers up so early. However I need to manage the intensity. Given I am flying cross country for business next week its an opportunity to de-load and work on active recovery.
My final movement for the night was front squats and as I make my way to the rack it dawns on me the gym staff have moved the rack so they can install a mirror in front. Now I do get this because the majority of lifters here are bodybuilders but thankfully the muscle motion rack allows you to flip the J-Hooks around so that I can face away from the mirror so no harm.
I will finish off posting Dan Green's RUM 7 squat, another insanely strong effort. I met Dan Green at our Nationals last year where he was the guest lifter and was blown away by how densely built he was in person.
Stay Strong
