Full Body


This morning I had a client go for a one rep max sumo deadlift, prior to it I told him I believe it'd be within 10 pounds of his conventional, in my head thinking 10 pounds more, I was wrong it was 20 pounds more, lets see how it goes for me.

Sumo Deadlifts
225x3
275x3
315x1
345x1
365x1
385x1
405x1
425x1
445x1

Alternate Sets
C2B Neutral Grip Pullups - 5xmax reps.......11, 9, 7, 7, 7
Cable Bench Press - 5x10.....all at 80

BOO YA, that is pure awesomeness I am very happy with that lift.  I guess I equalled my client in terms in difference (one 1RM conventional is 425), but still beat him by plenty of weight :).  I also remember that 425 lift with conventional and while I don't have a video I really didn't like my form, this time my form felt (and looked) solid.  After the 425 lift I thought I should go to 435, but after watching the video I decided to go right to 445, in my head thinking I may just be getting greedy with the weights.  I was nervous attempting but pleased as hell when I locked it out.  Watch the magic here;

I paused the music just to hear the sounds I felt I had to make to lift this weight.  Awesome feeling!!

  1. Ha! That's the noisiest I've heard you on any lift! Great job on the PR. Do you realise that's only 20lb less than lifting me doing my PR? :-) (140 + 325 = 465)
