605.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq		It's been a while since i've posted anything in my old log,so i thought i'd start a new one,with a new way of training.
After a failed attempt of a 250kg deadlift yesterday, followed by 10 sets of 4 with 192.5kg, (which has left me with shredded hands and a broken back) i have come to the conclusion that deadlifting often is not making my deadlift stronger.
From now on,i'll be deadlifting only once every 5 to 6 weeks,just to test if i'm getting stronger. The focus will mainly be on paused squats,front squats,good mornings,power cleans, high pulls and shrugs.
I'm not totaly sure this is a good idea, and i may actually get a lot weaker,but something about it just seems to make sense with me,and whenever i do any deadlifting now,i feel like it's taking more out of me than it's giving back. If anything, it should be interesting....

So, today's stuff.......
50 Band dislocates
Neck Rasies 22.5kg x 20x3 sets
Calf raises 60kg x 30, 30kg x 30
Hyper extentions x 30
Situps on hyper bench x 12

717.5 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq		Im sure the westside routine mentions 60% good mornings, 25% squats, 15% deadlifts when it comes to max effort lower body each week for frequency so cant be a bad idea.

Be interested to see how it works for you mate.

Thanks paul :-)
Maybe mate. I've set myself 4 goals (squat,deadlift,dips and pushpress) and they are very much a priority at the moment. Although,i am only weighing 83kg so I shall see what happeneds.

kirkynick said:Mate, have you read Bill Star's 'A different approach to improving the deadlift'?
He uses's pretty much the exact approach you are going to take.


Yes mate. That's what first got me into this way of thinking. Bill's articles are awesome.
