always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Pete said: I reckon that I'll now stick with the 18 inch deadlifts and the deficit pulls but I thought that I'd try a few other heights along the way. The mini-experiment seemed to confirm what I already thought - I'm OK from mid-shin and onwards but weak from the floor. I'm hoping that the deficits will help the weakness and the 18 inch work will familiarise my system with heavier loads. Sounds like a solid plan to me. | ||

The highlights have included: 18 inch deadlift: 315 kg 14 inch deadlift: 280 kg Deadlift from the floor: 265 kg - much easier than the previous time that I pulled this weight. Purely to feel a sense of accomplishment, a 300 kg deadlift from the floor has become the only thing - regarding lifting - that I'm bothered about achieving. After that point, I think that I might just 'retire' and take up knitting. | ||

has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | Just for a bit of a change, I thought that I'd do a bit of deadlifting. The aim was to nail 280kg but my final warmup suggested that would have been unlikely. I went for this 272.5 instead: | ||

I performed some decent front squats, along with some reasonable power jerks. Starting from next week, I'm going to move away from deadlifting heavy singles but I had another go at trying to nail a decent 1RM. I failed 280kg on three occasions. Strangely, the final attempt was the closest. | ||

Strong pressing Pete, I bet you're well pleased with that? How are the jerks going? | ||

Thanks, Millsy Sparrow said: Strong pressing Pete, I bet you're well pleased with that? How are the jerks going? Cheers, as I said, it was a goal for (probably) too long but now that it's ticked off I'm chuffed to bits - I still want to get much stronger though. I've hugely improved my strict pressing too but I've not done much split jerking recently. | ||
