Deadlift (used straps on all)

Absolutum Dominium: #16

January 21th, 2013 - Session#: 44
Absolutum Dominium: #16

Weight: 188-ish lbs
Squat
warmup
375x1Bx2+F (last set, started fine in the bottom, let myself get too far forward)
Bench Press
warmup
200x3x3, 1x2
Deadlift
warmup
425x3Bx1, x2Bx2 (used straps on all)
Training Notes
Good training day, as expected, things are starting to draw to a close. I will repeat 375x1x3 for squat and progress to 435x2x3 on deadlifts. Straps will be used on all pulls from now for the duration of the cycle. Finally I tried a different belt position (following a recent article from Juggernaut Training Systems) on squats, it seems to be effective.
