However, I have recently changed my programming. Coach Campitelli helped me out programming these. I will lift 2x3 on my ID, and 2x5 on my VD (this will include a back-off.) I will also switch my VD deadlifts to the same day as my VD squats.
With the combination of the programme changes, continued progress of my squat numbers, and improved recovery owing to the termination of exams and assignments next week, I am very much looking forward to progressing my deadlift.
