Wed Oct 27, 2010 Deadlift 585 lbs Until I Get It
Two days after the meet, I am dying to get back at the deadlift that stayed on the floor.
135 lbs x reps for warm-up
225 x 5 or 6
405 x 1 - suit
500 x 1
585 miss
585 miss
Shocked that I missed the first 585, I really expected it to go. It flew off the floor faster than ever, then at the knee it just fell right back down, not even a pause at the knee. So, the second time, I took more time to set up and pulled it slower off the floor, it actually went up highter and paused at the knee this time.
Each time I do this, it feels closer. Nothing hurts, so I will keep trying this until I get it.
Shawna suggested that next week I work with 560 and then 575 the week after, then go for 585. That sounds like the right thing to do. But, the way I feel, I want to go back out tomorrow and go at that 585 again, but I will wait until Saturday or maybe even until next Wednesday and that is so far away and it bugs me so much..... I have to get the 6 plates, then I will go back to sensible training and work my way up the smart way.
