Hi Jimmie,
I don't understand your routine, but it certainly seems to work well for you.
Cheers,
Diabloman

Nice deads. Heaviest I've done has been 235. 5 x 45. Is that 5 reps with bodyweight plus 45?

@Madanjen "DEAD - 5 X 265" means I pulled 5 reps on the Deadlift at 265 pounds. "R9" means my Rate of Perceived Exertion was 9 on a 10 scale. I am running a Reverse Pyramid program, where the focus is on the top set, the results of which are posted above. The intent with RPT is to increase top set reps (in the 5 - 8 rep range) or weight (in 10-120# increments) every workout; until you stall. My target reps for Deads last night was 7; I pulled 5, ergo the "First miss' notation. 3 consecutive misses, then you deload 10% and start over.

@NM Thx. Until last night, my deadlift had been holding up pretty well to the cut. I could have pulled 8 last week if my grip had held. Had hopes of hitting the PR on the cut. After last night, that seems unlikely. And yes; confirmed on the BW +45 chins.

Those are pretty rocking chins. Sometimes I get annoyed with the 130 pound guys at the gym knocking off 15 or 20 reps with no weight, but then I start at 60 pounds heavier than them. I think I could take 'em. ;)

@NM Thx. No doubt you could take those guys, worst case, you'll catch them next week...
