Today's Training - Deadlifts

I got this week off to a great start. The training session I just completed went very well.

1) Deadlifts - 245, 250 x 3 singles, 260 (I pulled singles for each of those), 215 x 8

2) Bench - 125 x 2 x 5 (125 pounds, 2 sets, 5 reps each)

3) Pin Press Chest Level - 125 x 2 x 3

4) Pin Press Mid Level - 135 x 2/3

5) Decline Situps - 3 sets

6) Finisher: Burpee - 5 x 12 x 50 seconds rest (5 sets, 12 reps each, 50 seconds rest between sets)

Next week I'll only do pin presses from one level to reduce the volume of the overall workout. I'll be experimenting with rack work (pin presses, etc) for a while and see how that helps improve my strength levels.
