UB: Reps Week 5. Back

Defranco - Rollovers, piriformis and lat stretches

Deadlift -
135X5X2
225X3X2
305X1

T-Bar Rows -
BarX30
30X10
50X6
80X3
75X22, 8

Standing Abs - 5 sets of 10-12

I love deadlifting.  305X1 was an easy 1 Rep PR.  I actually got unbalanced on the way up, and the bar wobbled down on the left-hand side, but I had no difficulty locking out.  Can't wait for my first 3-plate pull next week.

I also hit 20 reps with 75 easily on the T-Bar and will up the weight to 100 for the final week.  I might not be able to clear 10 reps with that weight, but I don't care.  I'll just do as many set as it takes to get 30 like it was any other day of the cycle.  No finish lines.

Got 5 sets of abs in, but it was tough.  Normally I'd be inclined to take a session or two off for recovery, but I may try a different movement, or even a light circuit just to stay in the habit of doing ab work.
