    10 Dips           (same)

  Threw out my back slightly the night after the last workout; maybe coincidence on heavy deadlift day, maybe not. Waited until it felt perfectly normal before exercising again to be safe.

Deadlift Singles

9 Apr 12 (Mon)

    Warmup

    20 Pullups              (150lb assisted)

    20 Back Extensions

    7 Rounds

    1 Deadlift              (155lb, 175, 200, 225, 255, 275)  ** 295 failed

    Cooldown

    500m Row             (2min 2sec)

  Form was pretty good on all of these deadlifts. Went with normal stance. I got the 295 about half-way up, but it stopped there. Pretty close to getting it, but didn't go all-out on my first deadlift singles workout back.
