Sun 3/27/22 - Deadlift (Strength I - Week 2)

Garage Gym
(Deadlift)275x1,295x1,315x1,340x1,300x5,275x5,5
(BandBench)160x5,165x5,170x5,160x5,5
(303Squat)105x8,115x8,125x8,130x8

55 mins

Deadlfit for 1@RPE 8, 5@REP 8-9, 2x5@70-75% 1RM. Warming up the outside of my left knee was fairly painful at about 75% way to lockout even at very light weight. I could get into and out of deep squat without pain so I was a bit puzzled. I turned my toes a bit more outward on subsequent deadlift warmups and took my time upping the weight. Pain seemed to resolve, though I was a bit tentative and din't push the single any higher than 340, even though I felt good enough to go heavier. Back off sets were on the conservative side as well, but I also didn't sandbag. Solid session for me.  I supersetted overload bench with deadlifts for 5@RPE 6, 7, 8, - 5% for 2x5. These were good, not much to report. Finished up with 3-0-3 tempo squats for 8@RPE 6,7,8x2. My projected @RPE8 set felt really good so I added 5# for my last set. Just like last week, knees were a bit cranky, but warmed up well and I'm actually enjoying sets of 8 reps for tempo squats.
