At the start of this workout I intended on doing conventional deadlifts, but after warming up with 135 I decided to switch to my stronger one, and glad I did.
Sumo deadlifts (all resetting)
warmup
135x8
135x5
225x5
225x5
work sets
275x3
275x3
315x3
365x3
385x3
405x3
Deficit Deadlifts - 3x5.....315
Swiss Hamstring Curl - 3x15
That went awesome, however, I should add that for only the set at 405 I used straps. I noticed myself losing my grip on the set at 385, but had more in me. It's always debatable whether or not to use straps, but I wanted to see if I could get 405 for 3 reps, which would be a lifetime pr with that weight. I did, and it was heavy, but felt awesome, I won't get in the habit of using straps (unless I am doing romanians), but won't neglect them if my back and legs have more in them. The deficit deadlifts were killer, they always are, they destroy my legs, even felt them in my quads. It's amazing how hard swiss curls were after all that other work.
