Deadlift workout

[Zander1983]

Had a decent workout last night.

Deadlifts:
193lbs x 3
220lbs x 4
254lbs x 4
254lbs x 4
254lbs x 4
254lbs x 5
(my max single is 297.5lbs)

Those numbers are fairly close to the mark, with rough conversions from kgs to lbs.

Deadlifts were followed by a brutal pull-up/chin-up routine...

As many reps as possible:
1. Pull-ups (wide-grip), 10 seconds rest
2. Pull-ups (medium-grip), 10 seconds rest
3. Chin-ups (medium-grip), 10 seconds rest
4. Chin-ups (close-grip), 2 minutes rest
5. Repeat from 1.

First set: 7, 4, 3, 2
Second set: 3, 2, 1, 1

The deadlifts were brutal, so much so that I was extremely wasted for my second giant set of pull-ups.

I tried a supinated/pronated grip for the first time last night, on my deadlifts. After the first three sets, I found my grip faltering already (both hands pronated). The next three sets were great, after I switched my grip.

Nice work. Why did you stay at 254 for four sets? Was it speed work or were you just super setting with the pull/chin ups? I cannot remember, are you the one training for football?
