DEAD LIFT

Quit there. If I'm going to dead lift twice a week I will have to put the form day after the heavy day. Everything just felt heavy and crappy. I also forgot about packing my neck, so that may have held me back a bit. My knee was bugging me, but I'm pretty sure it's my VMO that is causing it, so I'll just keep up the soft tissue work and it should be okay. My forearm seems to be about 80% right now. I'm glad I skipped bench press yesterday because it gave my arm a chance to heal. Assuming it feels at least this good on Monday I plan to work up on the one board.

DEAD LIFT
135/225/315/365/365/365/365/365/415/415/415/415/415 x 1
*1 minute rest

Felt pretty strong. Kept my neck packed and made sure to flex my lats.
Irritated the medial side of both my knees. I think this is from having my feet turned too far out, but I don't know. I'm also not sure if dead lifting 36 hours after a heavy squat session was a good idea, but I thought it was fun.

Had to go down to the university gym today. Strange surroundings... probably more "broskies" at the university gym than the place I'm at now... and that is shocking.
