Here's the 585 x 2.

^ Very nice pull. Those speed deadlifts with 480 seem killer too.

Thanks .They were horrible . Nothing speedy about them the last three sets . But it's the trying to be fast that's important.

Looking good man. Have a meet coming up anytime soon?

4/28/12 at ironsport gym. Dl only. My shoulders have to be babied so I'm light upper body and ssb squats only.
Thanks .

Deadlift fun on Friday .

This was my 600 done last Friday the 9th. I'll update my log tomorrow. was supposed to be adouble. but felt drained after it. not tired, but like the power ran out or something. I worked up to this weight, bagged the rest, then did light upper body Thursday.

Dammit, I meant to put the deadlift up. here it is. 610 is scheduled for this week.

3/9/12 deadlift 45 x 6,6 135, 185, 225 x 2 , 275,315,365,425,500,600 x 1. Was supposed to be two but I was very flat . Stopped here. Just a bad day.

This is my 472 safety squat. I'm using wraps for my top two sets now relatively loose and using loose metal briefs. It's been helping my banged up left knee and groin issues.
My buddy shot this from eye level, he's 6'3" btw. He was also on our power rack platform which is two inches high.

This is the 610.

The meet is Saturday. I'm at weight now, just have to see how it goes. My back was banged up after the last workout I posted. I did a deload, rehabbed it, then did the next week. I worked up to an easy 560 opener last week. I'm lifting deadlift only in the Ironsport meet this weekend.

Ha - I may be a spectator there cause my wife is busy so I got nothing else to do. If I recognize you Ill say "Hi". I did my first meet at Iron Sport in November - awesome place - you'll have a blast. It was also organized by Kate Baird who is organizing this meet - nice lady. Stevey P is a class act!

Good luck!
