Second session right after bench stuff.
JB, it was no problem combining these two days btw. If you wanted to make this a 3 day program, you could pretty easily.

As mentioned, I felt great so just pushed right into deadlifts. I was already warmed up, so what the hell. I expected a little drop off, but honestly I got stronger as I went along.

ANyway, big news is the rack pulls. I just crushed them. I have no idea why.

Knee High Rack Pulls:
4x 315, 335, 365, 385, 425!
2x 455!! WTF!!?

Stiff Deadlifts:
6x 225, 235, 245, 245 (didn't push last set, was doing these beltless and didn't want to do myself a mischief as low back was getting pretty well maxed out)

OK, I did these with the bar in front of my knees, not above, and it was pretty accurate to my form from the floor WHEN I KEEP MY HIPS DOWN! So clearly I can pull a hell of a lot more weight if I can figure out why I have so much trouble right at shin height and shoot my hips up.

Anyway, I'd say we don't need to work at this height anymore JB!

4x 335:
4x 365:
4x 385:
4x 425:
2x 455:

There you go. Was not expecting that! Don't know what to make of it either.
