Deadlift and upper back accessory
Raw deadlift (no belt or suit) 232.5kg x5 (did an extra 3 reps just for some work)
Speed deadlift (no belt or suit) 190kg 8x3 (90 sec rest between sets permitted, I took 45)
Chins 5x5 10kg + 2 large chains
1 Arm dumbbell rows 62.5kg 4x8
Wide grip lat pull downs 130lb 3x15
An rollouts 40kg 2x8
Grip was hit pretty hard with the dumbbell rows and the pull downs were just fpr a bit of a burn out.
I was thinking of really hitting the volume hard today but seeing as I've to bench tomorrow I figured I'd give it a miss. I'll still be fairly fatigued tomorrow night while benching but I really need to get the workouts in. I'm really gonna try and keep the delt and trap day in my split as it's become very obvious to me that the stronger my overhead pressing is, the stronger my benching is.
Regarding my deadlifting - been doing some reading and I've seen that a lot of guys are saying that using bands on the deadlift became equivalent to using a smith machine for them. For this reason rather than band all my speed pulls in every workout I'm gonna band them every other week. I've also decreased my deadlift frequency to once a week as I want to dedicate a little more time to accessory on Fridays.
Time to eat!
