 It really wasn't bad. I went in to this with the mindset of getting my 5, but knowing I need 9 in order to push the theoretical 1RM. Before I knew it, I was at 7 reps. 7 Dead-lift reps, no bouncing. Up. Down. Relax the grip. Reset the grip. Big breath (or two). Pull. The way this current format is shaping up, my Big Three lifts will have a singles week, a rep week, another, slightly heavier singles week, and a deload. Looks like a fairly liveable situation, only chasing rep records once per cycle. You have a good weekend too. We're headed to Mall of America for our annual Mother's Day outing.

No. Anything over one rep has become cardio or me. I never thought 3-5 rep sets were taxing until I stopped using them. Now I feel like a lump.

Nice deadlifts!
Ever tried doing negatives on the pullups? Get up on a bench or something, start with chin over bar, step off chair and hold as long as you can. Just a thought. Keep plugging away and you'll get where you want to go. Hope you survived MOA on Mother's Day!

Survived MOA just fine. Perkins afterwards, now that's a different story. I'm still paying for it. Too much food. Monday, 5/14/12 Workout 1.2.4 OHP (alternating with sets of chinups) 45x5 50x5 60x5 75x3 85x3 95x8 Chinups (between sets of OHP) x/x/x/x/x/x - I got dang close on the first few sets though. I think next time I might even get 1. Superset Dips BWx8x2, BWx7 DB Curls 30x10x2, 30x8 EZ Curl Tricep Ext. 65x12x2, 65x8 Big ass pump in the arms following. Felt real good. Next session will probably be Thursday. Squats. Singles at 95% 1RM.

Just got home from work. Gonna have an early dinner, do some dishes, let things settle a bit, and go bang out some 95% squats. Been thinking about it all day.
