Melanie: Monday & Tuesday

Days 1 & 2 of my new commie Power to the People program:

Press 55# 2 x 5
DL 135# 2 x 5

Press fine. Did DL's in frog stance. Didn't notice immediate difference, and 135 felt heavy. I'll keep working on it.

What difference were you expecting?

Melanie said...

I had read some comments about people loving this stance so I thought I might notice some sort of difference - I don't know what - compared to my old stance in terms of stability or something.

Chris said...

If there's one thing I've learned about DLs, they always feel heavy!

Hmmm. This power to the people program sounds intriguing. Tell me more. Should I but the book?

Chris said...

Power to the people is a communist plot designed to destroy freedom and democracy. Don't do it.

Anyway...

I'm doing it because I'm working towards a specific deadlift goal, and my schedule has been crazy and I haven't been able to go to the gym regularly. I can do PTTP @ home and it works towards my DL goal. I wouldn't buy the book if I were you - I think you can find all the info. you need online if you are interested.
