Starting a log, training like a madman to work out my anger!

I tried to get 365 lb deadlift today thinking for sure I'd be able to get that... since a month ago I was nailing 405... nope. I got super pissed off and did a TON of deadlifts in response.
I know that brutal leg workout on Tuesday didn't help my cause haha I was still so sore. That workout was...just... insane.

4 Mile run with like 6 minute 30 second miles... that needs alot of improvement lol. Almost puked running

6:30 is a solid pace for a 4 mile considering where you were and where you are at!
Try this for you DL, may work, may not. (works for me)---Wave Loading

So for me a real heavy set of DL is 315 for a set of 5. So this is the example based on MY numbers

DL--warm up--up to like a single rep of 255

Working sets--
275--set of 3-->295-set of 3-- 315- set of 3-->295-set of 3--305-set of 3---315 set of 3

As you can see, what is happening is I am doing 2 sets of 315 for 3 reps/set instead of 1 heavy ass set of 315 for 5. and at same time, I am getting the lower weight work in as well to increase the volume but they are almost "practice lifts"-they still serve a purpose of keeping your form well, getting volume in, and serving as back off sets.

Yeah I like that dude. I will give that a try next time. I'll be getting quality lifts and quantity still

That's a very interesting deadlift loading thing, I might have to try that. Another one is pre exhaustion, popularized by Benni Magnusson and Travis Ortmayer, 4 sets of 4 with 70% of your max, set of 2 with 80%, set of 2 with 90%. And you increase the weight by 10 lbs per week.
