Sumo deadlift --yup starting with this 135 X 5 185 X 5 205lbs x 5 225 X 5 245 X 4-6 X 2 sets -- I want you to go a little wider with your stance here. That will help you keep your back a bit more vertical. Weight looked easy for you so I think even with this change we can go heavier here. Deadlifts 225 X 4-5 X 4 sets -- You don't need to re-set after each rep. You can keep grip and hold on, just don't bounce back up after each rep (so kill the momentum). If you want to do the re-set each time, that is fine. -- Note on form, drop your hips a little more and make sure you aren't rounding with your lower thoracic/upper lumbar spine. It looks like you have a slight roundness here. The 205 is so light for you you can get away with it, but as we go heavier we want to get rid of it. Unilateral leg press 2(.5)20 tempo 360 X 8 X 2 sets 385 X 6-8 X 3 sets -- slow down, pause, slow up -- extra set this week.
