Pulling

Exercise, it's not for everyone
A fun pulling day, was in the mood for some deadlifts and cleans.

Wide-Grip Pullups - 5xmax reps......14, 11, 10, 8, 8

Sumo Deadlifts - 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5..........135, 185, 205, 225, 225, 225

12-10-8-6-4-2 reps for time
Power Cleans - 135
Kipping Pullups
Time: 14:13

Preacher Curls - 50 (11, 8, 7)
Hamstring Curls - 3x8......70

The wide pullups were about the same as last time, I really need to check my old scores so I know to see if I can grind out a few more, I always perform better if I am trying to beat an old score.  The deadlifts felt really good, first time going over 135 in a while, and I could have gone over 225 no problem but didn't want to get carried away.  I had forgotten how much sumo deads work your hamstrings and glutes and inner thigh, and hell it works a lot.  Part 3 was tough, I was barely able to hold onto the bar, both the barbell and pullup bar.  This is actually loosely based off a crossfit football workout, it certainly was hard.
