deadlifts

today was deadlift day and it was pretty fun. haven't done them in a long time. felt pretty good after some time off. John was surprised that i can lift 445 once but can't rep out 5 at 385. I told him its the last 15 years of me working only on beach muscles only. I used to be obsessed with bodybuilding(never competed)and would do one short short short heavy set to complete failure one time per muscle group/per week. My muscles looked big but they were only good for one heavy lift. i also think my brain has been conditioned to go balls out for one or two reps and then fade. I'm trying to work on it and i do feel like its getting better but i still have a long ways to go. I really want to focus on the barbell this year. Aaron loaned me his barbell cert book and i have a new appreciation for the barbell now.
