I knew what you meant ..... was just trying to say we all let something limit us... was trying to make a positive, motivating, statement .... sorry if it came out any other way....

I can't imagine dealing with the type of headaches you must experience. The mere fact that you train through that, is an inspiration to us all.

No harm! Wasn't sure if you knew what I meant or not. I know everyone has obsticals to smash thru!

so true though, with the "minimal" load I'm doing, it'll probably be like a nice hellish cardio session.

What better way to DO cardio than with deathlifts.

I was going to do 475 anyway.

495 is somewhere near 87% of my max I think....

Danger zone for me. I wouldn't want to push percentages that high

I estimated my 1RM at 380 based on my last DL session.
Less 30% put me at 265/266.

Here's how it broke down:

365 x 1-3-4-5-4-4-4-4-5-5-4-4-4 (51 reps total)

Was fully wasted after this and can't wait to see how I feel tomorrow. If I had had my camera I would have taken shots of the crazy looks I was getting. People just don't understand *shakes head*

EDIT: Changed weight from 365 to 265. Sorry for the typo. :!

Great work Tbone! That's the same number of reps I got
