Deadlift

Band lightened deadlifts (greens @ pin 5(?))
I've only done these once before I think a year ago, so I was really bad about my weight selection, but now I know what weights to use for the rest of the cycle.
405 x 4+1fail at the top
385 x 5
395 x 5
395 x 4+1fail at the top
365 x 5

Stiff legged deadlifts
255 x 5
263 x 5
283 x 5

GMOPs
135 x 10
Dave indirectly called me a bitch, despite my immortal technique shirt, so I had to move up to 185.
185 x 8+few seconds rest+2 -I think my form was alright for maybe the first 6 reps.
185 x 8+few seconds rest+1 -Same story on this set.
I'm able to grind out reps using all lower back and shitty form, so I'm pretty sure my weak deadlift muscles are my hamstrings and glutes. Also, my failed deadlifts stop right above the knees where stronger glutes and upper back would finish the lift. Need to get better at GMOPPING.

Finished with Banded hamstring curls and Planks
