All I have is the knee sleeves.

Hate to change the subject but does anyone have any suggestions on speeding up the heeling process or working around a pec strain. 9 days out. Strained it 6 days ago. Tested it yesterday. No issues until 365 which moved fast but I definitely felt it in the pec.

My solution is always just eat plenty and rest it. Never had pec issues but that's my go to remedy for other injuries. Someone can prob give much better advice than that but it's always been good method for me. I guess I'm still young by most standards tho and my body bounces back pretty quickly

I saw it hit 100 pages but I got all school girly when it got 1000 posts so I didn't want to say anything again...

Speaking of school girly, I had my daughter max out on lifts today so we can calculate the SS workouts.

Bench 95
Squat 115
Deadlift 135
Pendlay row 95
Press 55

For those who missed earlier, she's 14 yrs old, 5'5 and 130 lbs.

She's excited to get started.

Question for you guys. I haven't been able to deadlift heavy in a while due to a strain or something in my lower right lat, so I'm just doing 315 for a few reps every week to practice the movement pattern since that low of a weight doesn't cause any pain/irritation. I realized yesterday that I should try to do whatever deadlift variations I can do without pain to best maintain that strength until I can deadlift normally again. So what do yall consider the best deadlift variations? I'll try all the best ones suggested and see which ones don't bother my back. I was thinking romanian deadlift maybe? I'm open to all suggestions.

Well that's tricky because you've got to keep it lighter weights, my favourite would be block pulls but that's heavier then usual, next best IMO is deficit deadlifts there is a reason Dan green and Jessie Norris do them regularly

They're all going to engage the lats, so something like Romanian or deficit should be good since it limits weight. Maybe double paused deficit with longer pauses would make 315 feel pretty tough.

I just was doing Romanian deadlifts for the first time recently and mid 200's for 8-10 felt hard and made me very slightly sore.

hmm I've been doing block pulls on mondays already but I haven't gone higher than 365 with them yet so I'll see how they continue to go. I feel like deficit deads would cause the same problem but it's worth a shot to see.

yeah I'll give deficits a try and if they're no good I'll try doing them deficit and paused. I'll try romanians if none of this other stuff works.

Thanks guys.

I'm still open to more suggestions from everyone!

PA already hit it, but I agree, add in some pauses and double pauses at the weight you can handle right now.
