So yesterday was deadlift day 😁 My body was still seriously sore from squat day however I NEEDED to workout 😅 I had eaten 2800 calories the day before and I'm trying to go to the gym 4 days a week so I WENt. I worked up to 95# pulls. Mid through my second set, I felt like I was pulling with my back a lill so I adjusted. Wow do my hamstrings hurt! I did a couple of pulls kinda like a stiff leg deadlift instead. I wish the gym's mirrors went down low so I could get a good look at my form 😒 I went to work right after my workout and I could tell immediately that I would be in pain. My feet also hurt after deads. I guess from all that pushing with my feet 😁 On the bright side, my quads don't hurt anymore 😋

I find that with my trainer I do well on 90lb 3x15 reps but when I’m alone I want to add much more weight and in turn hurt the next day. Hahaha. My trainer is a firm believer in lower weight, higher reps on most exercises which I like because it gets my heart pumping. I do like testing heavier on my own, both squats and deadlifts. Yesterday we had 80lb only (3x15 reps) on squats and he was ready to spot me. Little did he know it felt like a warm up 😂😂😂 I cranked out his sets effortlessly and pretty sure he is going to load up next time hahah.
Deadlifts are simple yet so difficult... Hope you’re feeling better.

Mike I always do elevated hip bridges and banded squats before squats and deadlifts. They are the best at activating the glutes!
Dang Swedish your booty is strong!! 😜 High reps at 80#! Yeah it’s time for you to move up 🏋️♀️ My trainer friend that taught me how to do the movements pushed me until I failed so I continue to do that on my own. Except for bench. I’m still afraid of the bench 😓
