DEADLIFT Main
Event
I am ending this cycle of Deadlifts on a good note. I
matched 240 kgs x 3 reps which is a milestone I set last cycle and I followed
that with 241 for a double which is a PR. Last week I hit an all-time high in
terms of workload with a ratio (in terms of repetitions) of 4:1 for 240:241 kgs
and this week I turned it to 3:2 so that is a big deal of progress for me and I
am wiped out. I don’t think next cycle will get me this big because sustaining
this type of output is really taxing physiologically and psychologically. Next week will either be a deload type drill
or I will jump right into Good Mornings. I am blessed and lucky to have my team
with me – props to Kanishk, Diipen and Zarvan.

DEADLIFT Day
Kanishk managed to do an incredible workout through sheer
willpower because training while sick AND injured is extremely challenging. In
the words of Dr. K:
Good Mornings:
30 kgs x 3 reps
40 x 3
50 x 3 x 2 sets
Deadlifts:
143 kgs / 315 lbs x 2
145 x 2
147.5 x 2
150 x 2
152.5 x 2
165 x 2
An awesome workout despite being sick with a niggling cough
for the last 3 days.
So as you can imagine; breathing was very difficult and I
had many failed attempts at 165 kgs before I cracked it. I am happy to be
further along the path to surpass 185 kgs 407 lbs.
