Pulled singles vs light bands today. Getting ready for the 21 deadlift salute at the Arnold Classic the fist week of March. I had a back issue a month or so ago and wasn't sure if I was going to compete, but I'm starting to feel better after some deep tissue work.

Warmup 15-20 min mobility work. 2 x10 straight leg deadlift, 2 x 10 sumo deadlift

Working Sets, All vs elitefts light bands:
135x2
225x2
315x1
365x1
405x1
455x1
495x1
545x1

Metal Jack Suit on, Straps Down:
545x1
585x1

Everything felt great and moved well. This was the heaviest I've pulled since my back issue, so I was pretty nervous, but everything felt good.

Glute Ham Raise vs Monster Mini band
5x8

Hammer Strength Hamstring Curl
5x20

My hamstrings were smoked. I know I need to hit them harder if I want to hit a big deadlift in March.
