Deadlift 5 x 5 Workout
38/ 136 lbs/ 5'-6"
I was a bit tight and stiff starting this WOD
I did a decent warmup with burgener warmup, DUs and regular stretching, and concentrated on hamstrings and glutes.
95 lbs x 10 super slow and low
135 lbs x 5 super in control, working on activating the posterior chain
185 lbs x 5
215 x 5 (grip is what needs to get a little broken in, as it's my limiting factor usually)
235 x 5 focusing on great movement and exploding up after tensioning the bar (left arm is tight and shoulder and elbow aren't fully extending, which sets me a bit off center)
255 x 5 (great speed and not too hard at all)
275 x 5 (same)
295 x 5 (felt great)
305 x 5 (felt good... I really thought I had a bit left and movements were solid, & grip was o.k.)
315 x 5 (went o.k., with all reps unbroken and decent speed, but I may have rounded slightly because I started adn was adjusting my grip.)
I was focusing on keeping my shins really vertical and my posterior was working well for the heavier sets
POST WOD:
I did 4 rounds with about 30 seconds rest inbetween each of:
2 x 50 foot plate drive on floor (70, 80, 90, 100 lbs) I was going with good speed and only stopped for a few seconds at the 50' mark and then came back. Nice posterior burn at. Good stretch adn then home.
