We did these 3 weeks ago and I worked up to 455. I had the safety squat bar suspended in chains a little lower than I typically would have set it up, but it worked out well. This week I planned to hit 475 for a single.
Safety Squat bar (hatfield bar) Suspended (bottoms up) good morning -For convenience I just count it as a 45 lb bar. 135x3 185x3 225x2 275x2 315x1 365x1 405x1 445x1 475x1
Easy enough!
Accessory work: Reverse Hyper (light weight) 3x20 Cable Pull throughs *Heavy* 3x10 Standing cable abs 3x20
All things considered it was a good workout. The next couple weeks for my "deadlift" day (day to build up my deadlift) I plan to do a sumo pull off of high blocks next week, which I really, really suck at. And the following week I will pull a regular, conventional deadlift off of the floor for the first time in 2 months!
This is probably the longest I've gone without pulling a regular deadlift in the past 10 years. So, I will probably pull 700-725 and see how that moves and it will be a great indicator of where I am at!
