How sore were your triceps today going into benching?

[Kuytrider]

Strong lifting Jordan. Don't force the deadlift, you're not far away from 180kg at all I reckon. You can progress quickly on that lift without even realising it. Nice pressing too.

Triceps werent too bad. Front delts were the sore bodypart. They felt like they were going to give in.

Hopefully, I'd been making steady progress towards it before so hopefully it wont be too long. I'm enjoying training shoulders lately

Thanks Steve,

I'm finding my back workouts may not be reaching their full potential because I am exhausted after deadlifts first. I was thinking about switching deadlifts to leg day as seen above. I know alarm bells sound immediately at the idea of that due to all the lower back work in the same session but I'd like to get your thoughts on it?

3 wheels for 5 reps is damned good going. As for your Q about squats and deadlifts in same session, lots of MAB chaps do it and have no issues. I think you're meant to do squats first unless I am very much mistaken.

Yep your correct, most people seem to do squats first so I'll give that a try
