* I'm trying to get used to the motion here so the weight is light...
135 x 10

Just do your deads the same exact way you do squats. That way the two lifts will complement each other.

Get the motion down? Cluck What was that? cluck... cluck...

Thanks

- that's what I was focusing on. Initially I was leaning forward too much and bending at the hips.....I could feel it in my back.

What's up with the Cluck - Cluck??

It's OK to bend at the hips. And feeling it in the hips means you need to strengthen your hip flexors. Or it could mean you were trying to deadlift after squats AND SLDL.

My recommendation, for what it's worth, would be the do EITHER squats OR deads. Doing both will end up injuring you. Too much strain and focus to share between two lifts. Good job doing them, though.

Thanks for the Tip!

Damn nice SLDL's, YM! They looked pretty easy, though... how about 315 next week?

225 was good for 10. I'll try 275 x 5 in two weeks. I'm trying to do one week at 5 reps followed by two weeks with 10 reps then the fourth week I'll use 5 reps again but with more weight.

Your lifts are looking good Mono. I see you are gaining alot of strength. Good job!!

Cool.

What do you think of platform deads for hams? I was thinking of giving those a try this week instead of SLDL's. Not sure though.

And leave my crappy weights out of this thread, its your journal.

I'm not much of an expert on Deads right now. I like the Sumo Style Deads (because I can use the most weight on those). I plan on getting better and doing them every week. I might do them on Back days once in a while. I just wrote up a three week schedule for my lifts. I was going to start a new journal over the weekend for a fresh start so make sure you stop by

I'll look in YOUR journal to see how you like the platform deads instead of SLDL's.

It's almost the weekend. I'm outta here in 1/2 hour.
