Deadlift Day
Warmups:
5x135
3x225
1x315
1x365
1x405
Work Set:
5x445
Felt pretty good. I had to resist the urge to throw something heavier on there and try for some singles. Chalk seems to be making a big difference. I used to have issues with the grip opening towards the end of the set, and that has gone away with the reintroduction of chalk.
I'm excited about the weight, since most 1RM calculators will put 5x445 pretty close to or above 500. However, I'll probably wait until I can convincingly do 5x465 before I try a my first single over 500.
