Nice lifts friend.
I wish I could perform deadlifts.... back injuries still doesn't allow me. But dealing well with it

Hahaha i Deadlifted more than you today
So what exactly is the 5/3/1 aproach mate ? You go down in working reps with each set ?

Oi captfit you cheeky bugger haha
Its proper complicated you basically work from percentages of a training max, week 1 is fairly light week 2 is heavier with lower reps week 3 is heavier with lower reps and then week 4 you deload with light weight. I've got a sheet of paper with everything I have to do for the next 4 months ha

It sounds complicated but when you are 'in' the prgramme doing it it's actually pretty straight ahead.

5/3/1 is bloody awesome, can't fault it.

Heres the video from yesterdays workout! pretty pointless tbh but I wanted to show off my new barbell, this is quite literally the worst set of deadlifts that I have ever performed.. My excuses are that the bar was all sweaty from everyone using it and also the fact that I did them after overhead pressing lol.. next wednesday I'll totally kill it
