Deadlift (Barbell)
Set 1: 135 lb × 5 [Warm-up]
Set 2: 185 lb × 5 [Warm-up]
Set 3: 225 lb × 3 [Warm-up]
Set 4: 255 lb × 2 [Warm-up]
Set 5: 290 lb × 0 [Failure]
Set 6: 270 lb × 0 [Failure]

Notes: The bar left the floor this time but only made it to mid shin. Tried 2 attempts with no success.

Backed off the weight 10lbs - no luck. Seems like my lower back is just too fatigued

Workout Notes: Nervous and not very confident this workout. Last time I worked out I failed some sets and didn’t even move the bar on deadlift.

Some weird sickness has been hanging on to me and I feel pretty drained and tired.

Diet has been around 180-220 grams of protein and about 2800-3300 grams of protein so on the low end.

Missed the last workout so I am going to reattempt the same weights on the squat and deadlift to see if I get better results.

Main focus will be concentrating on my hip drive and a wider leg stance on the squat
