Deload? How much grief have I been given over the years for not using light weight during my “deloads”?
Looking forward to the seeing how the meet prep cycle goes.

Hahaha, I would like the opportunity to defend my questionable and idiotic approach: I did eliminate the accessory stuff…ok, guilty as charged!

Looking good, Paul. And brave…pairing any major exercise with Deads is fatiguing as heck. Masochism at its best!
That 1000# is definitely in danger!

Thanks Big Man… it was an interesting experiment. and surprising how well it went considering I had benched 2 days prior. hitting 1k will depend on my squat.

The adrenaline and resolve will be good for several pounds. Just keep doing what you’re doing. The rest will take care of itself.

How did the 265# feel?
I don’t recall, have you actually pushed it towards a 1RM, to see about where you are?

265 was solid…plenty deep, had a guy watch my depth… Haven’t tried to test max, Skip, but just from what I’m moving and how its moving I have a decent idea.
Solid meet prep start OG. Keep up the hard work.

Speaking of deep tissue work…my wife has been looking for a chiro. I asked around at work and the same name kept coming up, for chiro and deep tissue message. So, now I know where I can go! And I can let her decide if I need realignment, deep tissue, both or just a new body.
