Okay session.  Regular deads all felt fest.

When I decided to up the weight on my back-off deficits, I originally pictured starting off with sets of 3.  However, since I was moving straight to deficits without doing back-offs of regular deads, I wanted to see what it was like if I reduced the deficit from a 45lb. plate down to a 1/2" mat.  Before I knew it, I was pulling sets of 5 without thinking about it.  Started to run out of gas on the 3rd set, though, and only ended up pulling 3 on the 4th.  Really more of an energy issue than a strength issue, I believe.

155X14 is an all-around PR on bent rows.

Was sweating my balls off by the time I finished up with all the super-set rows and hamstring curls.  Still trying to push that work capacity and conditioning for whenever this fucking snow and ice finally goes away so that I can start getting some running back in.
