Yup. But that local fatigue and muscle damage will also manifest as central fatigue.
Very cool. I fussed quite a bit with fatigue management in that template.
Yeah. Leg Press + glute ham machine would be a pretty great combo (and not very fatiguing).
Thanks for the response. How does this sound?
Subjectively, I rated the 545x1 rep @10, in that I did not think I would have been able to get anything at 575 (95%). From a quick look online, it doesn’t seem like 0.23m/s is a limit - perhaps I need to learn to push harder and do more anyway.
How many sessions did you try this for? Depending on how long you've pulled in Heels for Flats can take a while to even not feel awful.cole wrote: ↑Sun Jan 27, 2019 5:51 am I can never tell if I need more stress/volume or less with dead lifts. But I need something, that's for sure. I tried the flat shoes, hell no. Next, I'll try widen ing my stance. I have been modeling my training after the great dentist, Dr Austin Baraki, who squats high volume on Mondays and follows it with high volume deadlift on Tuesday. Then squat variant Thurs and dead variant Fri. This, apparently works for him.
Are you a Grinder? Off the top of my head I don't recall any of your limit pulls looking particularly slow but I cannot be sure...just might be something to consider here?
Does this mean the new experiment starts Monday?Chebass88 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 27, 2019 6:47 am As preparation for this deadlift experiment and to put a stake in the ground, I did some rough speed tests at varying percentages. I rested 2:00 between all reps, and used my tape measure as the distance indicator. I don’t know if it has any bearing on the experiment - I also have video of these lifts as well.

I'm definitely not good at grinding, at least not in the "spend five seconds trying to get a lift" fashion. Whenever I've rated RPEs, they are always higher than the video playback indicates.ChrisMcCarthy1979 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 27, 2019 6:55 amAre you a Grinder?

Yes indeedy. Tomorrow will be snatch grip deads and bentover rows.
That sounds pretty similar to what I wa doing (I figured it as 65% of comp E1Rm, but whatever). I’m probably going to shamelessly mirror what you guys are doing, hopefully starting today. That is, if I can get to the gym between the blizzard and the temps dropping to -15. Maybe I’ll add some chins and curls.Chebass88 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 28, 2019 7:25 amI'm definitely not good at grinding, at least not in the "spend five seconds trying to get a lift" fashion.

It could also be a mental block too - as soon as I decide that I'm done, any subsequent rep doesn't go. In my little experiment from Saturday - I didn't even attempt 575, as I perceived 545 as "tough", and the lack of mental focus works as a very effective off-switch for deadlifts.
Yes indeedy. Tomorrow will be snatch grip deads and bentover rows.
@Hanley - what do you think of the following for snatch grip volume? This is at the upper range of the guidance from the Bench thread/
Set 1: SGDL 82% x 6 (based on SGDL = ~90% of conventional, so ~445)
Set 2: SGDL 75% x 6 (~410)
Set 3: SGDL 75% x 6
Set 4: SGDL 75% x 6
Inter-set rest would be ~3 minutes.
Bentover rows: I did ~42% of deadlift last week for 5x5, but it was sloppy, so I'd be inclined to stay at that weight again, to maybe work my way to 5x8 total. Using bench-width grip (ring fingers on rings, with straps).
This is the SGDL "high stress", yeah? (certainly looks high stress). So, we'd pair it with conventional "low-ish stress" (singles between - maybe 77-82%) later in the week?Chebass88 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 28, 2019 7:25 amHanley - what do you think of the following for snatch grip volume?

First session of the experiment completed. I did all of the sets T&G, and inter-set rest was probably closer to 4 minutes. I ended up doing 7 reps on the last backoff set, as I lost count, and wanted to make sure I definitely did 6 total. In terms of RPE, the sets were definitely not @10, maybe @8 (?). I typically overestimate RPEs, so that might not be the best value to use.Hanley wrote: ↑Mon Jan 28, 2019 9:03 amThis is the SGDL "high stress", yeah? (certainly looks high stress).

As SGDL high stress....I think it looks spot-on. I'm throwing the sessions into a training calendar today.
Experiment update.
