20 reps? Did your form get shitty at the end? I remember trying 16 rep sets on deads and my from would break down.

Yea Beans, got tired after 12, after aboot 16 my form was shaky. It felt like cardio, and I was dripping sweat. But I felt really good after passing out on the leg curl machine. It's a great accomplishment for me.
Angry, I look like a lot of people lol. Sometimes I look like Jesus, sometimes a terrorist, some people even say I resemble Fabio. Wtf??
Thanks Winter.
My traps are sooo sore today. This is the first time I have trap soreness just from deads, I know it's from the deads cuz I didn't do any trap work yesterday.

Yeah, deads are great for traps. Also genetics. My traps grow a lot and my chest doesn't.
Shrugs are a nice excersice, but I like them as grip work.

Thanks man. Although I used to lift a lot more, I'm happy with my lifts because I'm progressing. I'm also dissapointed in my physique but at least now I'm trying. Thanks for teh compliment.Angry said:
Lol not for a while, I'm doing the most I possibly can in these workoutsAngry said:
I love deads, never stopping. Without this forum I never would've done deads. I used to do them maybe once every 6 weeks, I was always scared that they would stunt my growth. PeheTMan said:
I gave that a try today, post workout. Coughed up a few hair balls though. Will try weener dog next timeMULLLIIII said:
Thanks bro!! I learn from you guysadidamps said:
I will be giving GMs soon, I just want to get my form down first so I don't hurt something. Oh and about videos, I really want to start recording my workouts. Only my gym is filled with arrogant little kids that will mock my use of a camera, and I also have no place to set it up. Soon though I'll start recordingAngry said:
Yea my grip is getting stronger from everything actually, not really a problem anymore. Seated shrugs really get the shit outta me. Standing shrugs don't get me because I can't pull optimum weight without straps. I remember in India when I used straps and gloves and roids n stuff, I repped 125s for shrugs.Luquillo said:

Break from deads? Well I've been killing myself every single week with these high reppers. It may look easy with the light weight but I'm struggling my ass off. So I decided to take a break.
Or maybe you meant why the workout was so short. I had to leave as soon as I finished the rows, my dad needed me
