Kyle's PL log

[KyleMask]

Thanks, goat. Yeah, Steve, attending the June seminar. You look to have a decent job. Just talk your wife into a little vacation in beautiful Wichita Falls and pony up the money...

Back off sets (paused) 315x2,2,2 (RPE 8.5, 8.5, 9)

4/24

Deadlift 533x1,1,1

--Trying to do that hippie, new age "listen to your body" bullshit. Body said no-go today, so I did a little deload. Won't train again until Tuesday, at which point I'm returning to Tues deadlifts and Fri squats because this just fucking works better for me, and because it makes much more sense for meet preparations (8 days between last heavy squat and meet, 11 days between last heavy deadlift and meet, instead of the nonsensical opposite).

4/28
Deadlift 614x3 PR (felt like an RPE of 9 simply because my thumbs hurt from the hook. Looked more like an 8. Training partners thought I had two more reps in me.)
Snatch grip deadlifts 445x3, 495x3, 520x3



P.S. How do I get this fucking thing to embed?

Take the "s" off of "https" and it should work.

Now, can you show me how to deadlift 614x3?

[KyleMask]

Thanks, Finn. I can't show you, but I can let you in a little secret. You have to keep deadlifting. In my case, for 14 years, albeit with many detours, turns, and stops. And it never gets any easier.

Damn nice pulls! BTW, I'm devising a plan to make it to the seminar in June. Not sure it will work out, but if it does, promise me you'll teach me to hook grip like that at least :-)

[KyleMask]

Hell yeah, Steve. That would be awesome. We'll have to demolish some bbq, too. I'd assume one can find some good brisket around those parts.

4/29 (Suffering a little deadlift flu today)
Bench (paused) 345x2 (RPE 9.75539393), 325x2,2,2 (RPE 8.5, 9, 9.25435)
Not paused 225x15
Db row 130 3x15
Curl 95x10, 105x8, 115x6

[Powerliftinggirl]

Those are some impressive significant figures on your RPE's you got there. Hehehe.

[afatgoat]

that 6 and change for 3 is rediculous you strong bastard.

Oh yeah! I do know there's a place called The Branding Iron. I don't really remember how good the BBQ was, because I was too busy being impressed with how much Josiah Moye could eat. It was after that crossfit total that Rip held in 2012.

Anyway, if it doesn't fill up before my next paycheck in a week, I'm signing up.
