295lb deadlift to start the full body session ⚡️🤺🚨 I’m actually not sure I’ve ever pulled this much. I don’t think so. I’ve hit 285. 300 is next. Last year I took a smaller step back from my specific lifting “blocks”, so I just kinda tried to maintain my strength while building to more athleticism. As exercise science can prove: specificity is important and necessary to get better at something This means to get better at something specific, you just specifically do that one thing. BUT We also understand the importance now of building other pieces up to finish the puzzle. For instance you need to build some muscle size and that will make you stronger, Then you need to lift heavier weight to give yourself a new stimulus: that will make you stronger. But what after that? Power, speed, higher velocity movements, deep range mobility work, endurance: that might be one of your missing puzzle pieces. Without a strong core you won’t be able to hold a neutral pelvis and spine for a solid deadlift. Without proper mobility your joints / muscles won’t be able to move into the correct positioning. Without owning a bit of power, you won’t be able to lift that bar up as quick/ strong. You see. The equation is sometimes bigger than you think. Sometimes not. FULLLL BODY DAY: ⚡️ Heavy Deadlifts; elevated because not everyone needs to or can pull from the floor and I like to do both. Worked up to heavy singles ⚡️A) SL Bridge Press ⚡️B) Single Leg Squat ⚡️A) 1/2 Kneel Press ⚡️B) Push-Ups Session was pretty simple since most of my energy was needed for deadlifts. Left feeling stronger than before which is a good sign 🪧 Happy day, happy November 😏 @vuoriclothing @lululemon #lululemoncreator #fitness #coach #deadliftpr #power #speed #functionalworkout
