Deadlift: 425x1@8 (3 times)

Bike.

Deadlifts will take a slightly different approach. I want to work up to 1@7-8 for 3 sets. It’s all that lumbar squirrelly feeling I get. I want to see what lower weight, stricter technique focus, and then volume via sets will tell me in regards to my back.
.
This was ok, but I might want to stop sooner, like 365. Again, to allow me to examine what’s going on.
.
But more important, that thing with my shoulders that manifests as crippling biceps pain flared up hard while deadlifting. I opted to scratch the rest of the session.

Trying out those grippy X sleeves from Mark Bell. Stupid tight and stiff. I felt some legit support in them (more than other sleeves). Did they help my squat? Dunno, but even placebo is a help. 🤷♂️ Felt I cut it just a bit high, but the confidence will come. Besides, this is only the second time I’ve squatted 365. So happy to that.
.
Bench was ok. Left pec still irritated but singles are acceptable to it.
