jediokie Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Last night I pulled 380 x 6 on the deads. My 1RM this time last year was about 300, crunch the numbers and you get a new estimated 1RM of about 455. I'm happy. Quote My workout log Link to comment
Gainsdalf the Whey Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 That's awesome! Next time test yourself out and pull a few heavy singles of increasing weight. I love doing that at the end of my DL workouts and usually can't resist pulling a few heavies after my 5 rep working set.

I just started 5/3/1 BBB and I couldn't finish my working sets after those big pulls. I was planning on trying to pull some singles after I did 380 but I was feeling it more than I'm used too (which is good). I probably could have pulled 450 for sure yesterday if I hadn't done 6 at 380. I'm so addicted to pushing/pulling weight now it's scary. I have to reign myself in a lot or I'll hurt myself. And thank you all for the grats. Quote My workout log Link to comment

jediokie Posted July 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 So after not being able to finish last weeks routine. Last night I went ahead and did all my lifts which included 405 x 5! I almost broke into dance after I sat the last one down. I was also able to get all my working sets in. Happy, happy, happy. Quote My workout log Link to comment
WifeyB Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I vote you should have danced! Congrats! Most impressive.
