DL Comp 1, Week 2, Day 3

DL Comp 1, Day 3

Today, lots of driving

Also picked up 115 kg of kilo plates and moved them from a 4th floor apt to my car and then from my car into my basement, then moved a punch of other plates from deadlifting area to new basement.

Everything was pretty tired to start with.  Lifted at 6:15 pm.

Light SN

Today, Friday

some stretching and a few 24 kg cleans while teaching

SN: 12 kg x 35R/L in 3:20, about 21-22 per minute

Went right first again, actually feel like I need now to pay more attention to form on _left_ side than I did, kind of zoned out.  Breathing a little labored but not much.  Will keep working towards at least 50R/L before moving up in weight.  100R/L, 200 total, would be great, then maybe a progression like:

200 @ 12 kg
180 @ 14 kg
160 @ 16 kg
140 @ 18 kg
120 @ 20 kg

or maybe

200 @ 12 kg
200 @ 14 kg
180 @ 16 kg
160 @ 18 kg
140 @ 20 kg
120 @ 22 kg
100 @ 24 kg

Later:

1APU @ 10" x 2R/L

Light SN, 1APU

Today, Wednesday

SN: 12 kg x 25R/L in about 3:00 or about 17 reps per minute.

Not challenging to anything, but some lessons learned:

- better go right first for me.  Much as my over/under on the DL is backwards for a righty, it will be that way here, too.

- my timing on my right side is still forced, but it's getting better.

- lockout happens without flexing my tricep, so need to just flex tri's once in a while since my elbows both hyperextend slightly.
