Tuesday, December 7 'Deads'

This session was far more potent than it looked on the board. One minute rest seems like a lot, until you are gassed to the point where getting more bumper plates on the bar becomes more difficult and BAM! time to lift again....

Super strong session Eric! 300 pounds is HEAVY.  Scott- you also had a great session- 305 pounds is really HEAVY! Tammy, remember the 65 pound deadlifts you started with? You are now lifting more than three times that weight FOR REPS! Everyone had a good workout with this one. All the deads looked good, from set-up through drive, to finish- GOOD STUFF!

Some of the cues that we talked about before the session were: lifting hips to engage hams, get some torque generated as you begin the drive, and super tight MLS. These are key to solid deads, and thinking about them will keep your deads spot on. There is another preparatory cue that we will work on in the future called loading and tensioning, that when learned can increase power generation substantially.

Thanks for another great session, thanks for the heat too...

Tight pillar? KStar has the solution. You just have to find a few that help and DO THEM! No days off.
