2011-04-22 Dead and Bench

Warmup - same as last time

Deadlift: 135, 185, 225, 275
345lbs - 3x5
Grip's becoming a limiting factor here, though it's possible that's a consequence of my not focusing so hard on squeezing the bar. I really, really need to get those Farmer's Walk handles.
It appears that the RSF got a bunch of new student staff - people coming over and telling people they can't go barefoot/open-toed, people using disinfectant spray on the equipment while the gym's still open, etc.. It's possible that disinfectant thing is just a consequence of the management finding out about Saba bleeding all over one of the bars, but still...
Video upcoming (along with squats from last time).

Floor Press: 45, 95, 135
180lbs - 3x5
May have made a poor choice of starting weight here, but oh well.
Video of one of these...ish. It's in two parts because of previously-unknown nuances in Rachel's droid.

Pull-Ups:
BW - 3x5
Doing this one more time and then adding weight. Got my lats to engage, got good ROM, got all the reps, etc..

RDLs:
185lbs - 3x10
These were honestly more Dimel Deadlifts, but...meh, w/e. Still trying to find a movement that'll get my grip, low back, hamstrings, and upper back at the same time (grip's less of a concern once I have the farmer's walk handles). And yes, I know, SSB work.
