It was great to be back to my training after a week off.  As you can see, I stuck to my calculated reps for this session. I am going to change it a bit and do that for the 1st & 2nd weeks, then go max effort on the 531 (3rd) week and see how it goes. Also, I’ve changed my assistance work a bit. In working towards my goal of 500 I have a sticking point at the beginning of the lift.  Coach recommended I throw in deficit deadlifts to work past this sticking point. Since I’ve not done them before, I thought it would be good to stay light and make sure my form is there before getting heavier. These have a very different feel through each stage of the pull and I definitely think they will help a lot. (thanks again Darren [Coach]!)
