Chris Wednesday

Trap bar dead lifts:
135x8, 225x5, 295x1, 315x1, 325x1, 335x1

Standing press:
70x8, 95x3, 115x1, 125x1, 130x1

My GI tract was feeling funky since getting up this AM, so I decided not to push to failure. However, both of the final weights were PRs for me.

Yay! Pressing! Not jerking or push-pressing but good old pressing!
Nice job!

Why trap bar DLs?

Chris said...

Sam - 2 reasons for the trap bar.
1) I could not do squats at this particular gym, and trap bar works legs much more than straight bar DL, and 2) I was feeling too puny to do both squat and DL. So, a compromise.
