I have to say out of all the strength days, deadlift day really knocks me a new one. Which is great. If I still have energy to workout or feel like I should have done more, then I did not do it correctly. The point is to push yourself to your max, then push past that. I can say for sure I was successful in that.
Deadlift 3x3
285, 305, 325
In all honesty the 325# was a mistake. I was looking for 320 but lucky me couldn't count. I won't be making that mistake again for next week. I'm actually thinking about picking up some half # plates and 1 # plates. Not saying the +5 is bad but I want to have more options as the weight increases. After all, be it 5# of 1#, increase is increase.
Deadlift 12 =>15
225#
I had to do this twice. The first time I only got up to 5 reps then dropped the bar. I'm not sure where my head was at but it sure wasn't with lifting. I knew I could get 12 so I rested for a minute then got back to it. I did get 12 and was trying to get up to the 15 but collapsed after the 12th.
At the box we had a nice visit from Diane. The last time she dropped by, she ripped me a new one. Well she did the same thing only this time not as bad. In fact I knocked 3:13 off my time which is fantastic! It was the HSPU that were killing me as they do with most.

Overall a great and very tiring day for getting my WOD on. I'd be lying if I wasn't looking forward to the metcon only day tomorrow.
