Nice liftin'.....yeah, chalk is a MUST...........in my honest opinion, the reason you feel so good is BECAUSE you're alternating the cleans with the deads, lol
lol... oh yah... good point, alot of truth to that I'm sure! Ok, i need to buy some chalk damnit!
.....the erectors are a non-issue once conditioned, the problem with deadlifting from the floor weekly is CNS burnout when you're yanking on double bodyweight and much more for reps week in and week out. You'll hear lots of different opinions on 'speed deads' and light deads, but personally, I have found them to be totally useless, it's not like the deadlift is a technique heavy lift and the extra practice will help, and at 65% you're slinging around what? 260 lbs? that's not gonna help you pull anything worthwhile......you might as well clean and clean pull.
Hrrmmm, great points... I want to drive up my Power cleans then
And I'll add in chins or some accesorie work like that.
If you're dying to DL every week and do a plan like you laid out......you can do something like this.....Power Cleans (5 doubles or triples), Clean Pulls (4 triples), then take the weight on the bar from clean pulls and go right into deadlift warm-ups and work your way up.....however, if your CNS is blown out after the second workout and everything goes down the crapper, you've been warned, lol......if you do well on it (which is possible) I will be beyond impressed. One thing......this kind of workout is better for an upper/lower split or some type of split because when you add in squats and presses, you're looking at about a 2.5++ hour workout, which is alright as long as you're well-fed, but some find it mentally draining.
I might try this for fun... sounds rough
My spinal erectors are conditioned now so I'd like to see how my body takes the beating now
On the bench......I'd do something with the reps if you're stuck.....Make the heavy day a day to cycle between triples and singles weekly, and make the second day a 5x5 or 5x8 day.

Sarge.....don' think of it as a NEW 'routine'....it is just a little adjustment to what you are doing, which is not a routine, but a way of organizing training to foster progress, lol.......What you'd do is on the heavy bench day work up over 3 progressively heavier sets of 5, then hit 3x3 at the same weight one week, the next week is 3 progressively heavier sets of 5 and 3 singles at the same weight, then a backoff set of 8 on the day you do the singles to add to the volume......then the second bench day would be 5x8 adding weight each set.
