I hear ya... I'm all over the place with my workouts... Sometimes 5am, sometimes noon, sometimes 5pm or later... All depends on my schedule.

Its rough to judge progress when you know you are going to have a better workout in the afternoon after having a few meals, versus in the early morning when you haven't eaten anything..

Yes sir very true. I have been doing lots of static holds with over 100% of my 1 rep max this last month. Let's see how that carries over after this upcoming week I should be well rested. This upcoming week I will do heavy squat walk outs.

Never really done a lot of static holds, but I can see heavy walkouts carrying over well. Even just mentally it gets you used to having that weight on your back.
I've done simulated yoke walks in a cage, and those are great for overloading your max...

Wish my gym had a yoke. I have my own bars stored at the gym. I am putting together all the stuff I want for my home gym now.

This is why I said "simulated" yoke walks..

Set up in a cage that has sabre style pins that run from front to back of the cage..
Set those pins so they are maybe one hole under your shoulders, so that when you lift up the bar on your traps, it's barely clearing the pins (obviously you have to put the barbell on the pins before loading it)

Lift it off the pins like you're going to squat, but instead you just march in place... And just like a yoke, if you wobble, you're going to hit the pins (would be the ground with a real yoke), which will cause you to have to balance and stabilize..

I've worked up to a 600lb bar for about 30 nice, steady steps...

Not a problem guys. Got to address weaknesses to make a total package. Do the stuff we dont REALLY want to do. I just want to lift heavy shit everyday, but neglecting the probably care, maintenance and structure of you body, in my short experience, leads to problems.

this is the guy that i found the drill im going to be doing. the drill isnt listed on the site, but it has alot of good info.

@theprodgicalson I hope you don't mind me stealing your vid. I just wanted to have this so I can reference to review when I need it.

Lol. Yeah I usually stay at 355-365. I tell you what though. Doing back work before bench felt so good on my shoulders.

I have been warming up with some lat pull downs before Bench the last couple months and i really like what its been doing to my bench and joints before pressing. i use light weight for a couple sets of 15

Great overall workout today. Today was day 3 of deadlifting in a row. Saturday was Comp deadlift, Sunday was snatch grip deadlift and today was deficit deadlift. Deadlift felt awesome today.

Deadlift hasn't felt this good in a long time. @theprodgicalson I used those 5 mob drills from that vid you posted earlier and I got on his youtube channel and found a few more mob drills for the lower body that I use before and after. Fucking felt and feel awesome. Thank you sir. Always nice to try new things that will improve my body of work.

I honestly blacked out once I got to 315. I did sets of 10,5 and 3. I did a lot or reps. Felt good Third day this week pulling. And my form and technique are feeling great. I also reset after each rep to lock in get tight and engage my lats. Focusing on keeping the bar close to me. So far I am liking the frequency. I feel fresh not beat up. This was my 1st go with RPE/RTS type training. It took some time to understand it. I am still learning my body through RPE and it's finally coming together. Right now I had no intentions on competing this year. But SPF has a meet in September in my neck of the woods. I will be going to that one most likely to get my feet wet.

Comp Deadlift:
135 1x10
225 3x5
315 many reps lost count and just kept lifting.

I also blackout sometimes when I workout drunk! Good sessions man!

LOL!!! I have never tried working out drunk. Must be a blast. Yeah I am liking the frequency. I just have to be careful not to go to high with the intensity. I will play with it. The more I lifted today the loser I got. I feel like I could have kept going forever. LOL!!!
 
I'm cutting back on accessories. Focusing on the comp lifts. I will be setting my attempts up in the upcoming weeks. The only thing I'm a bit concerned with is the monolift. I'm hoping that they have a monolift in the warm-up area so I can get height adjustments just right. Same for bench.

It will the SPF that I'll be competing in. Would love to have someone wrap my knees. And a person to hand off the bar to me on bench.
