After taking a rest day after my New Year’s Eve deadlift PR, I went to the gym and got there earlier than I had been and that was a good thing.

I started off with three rounds of Burgener warm-ups, dislocates and overhead squats.

From there, back squats were the order of the day and started off with triples before moving to singles.

135×3/185×3/225×3/335×3/245×3/275/275.

At the suggestion of one of the resident strongmen, Scott suggested to improve my deadlifts, I should add in barbell Good Mornings. After getting instructions on the best form, I did 4×5 x45/95/135/135. My first impression is that GM’s suck, but I’m sure they will work.

To finish, I did overhead presses with mini bands on each side.

95×3/95×3/115×3/105×3/95×3.
