Deadlift

Here is the deadlift I promised earlier today :) This was my last exercise of the day so I wasn't a 100% yet i did better than expected. In my first Deadlift video, also can be seen on my blog under the post: 'In the gym', I was lifting 8x125 kg. This video was uploaded 10 months ago, so not even a year passed by. I switched to 5x5 repetition for my diet. It doesnt exhaust my body, yet maintains the mass because the body still feels a need for strength as I go heavier. This is why people often say: you can get stronger during a diet, but don't expect to build muscle at the same time. These concepts are very different. I went trough a serious bulking period in the past months to build muscle and strength as well. As far as my deadlift is concerned, here's some evidence (5x140 for warmup, then 5x170kg. I actually went down by 10 kg each set from then on)
One more thing: now I'm going full range. In my first video the bar is stopped above the ground. I don't do that anymore :)



My last rep was messed up as far as my form is concerned. I admit :( At least I have something to improve in :)
