Pulled 485 for a double today. decent week of lifting. 3 weeks ago got 505 for a single, last week couldnt break 435 off the floor
My recovery must be shite. Oh well, strong enuf.
Yeah dude, any deadlift that starts with a 4XX+ is solid work. Good shit.
My program randomly threw in sumos for 4 weeks. I've never been good at deadlifting, but I for sure do better pulling sumo than conventional. I pulled 315 for 8 this morning and was pretty damn happy with that. Weak shit even for being only 175 lbs, but pretty good for me.

Lookin' huge
I guess if I had to critique (this is the name of the game I guess), I'd agree that your arms lag the rest of your physique. Your arms aren't by any means small, but your lat development is pretty nuts and it sort of dominates your frame. Good "problem" to have.
Thanks dude! Yeah arms and legs, especially legs now with the size I’ve lost from this injury, for sure need to come up to match my torso. Going to keep hitting them with the bit of extra volume and see what I can do and then I’ll reevaluate after a few months and see if I need to tweak things more.

I should practice some sumo pulls. Tried them once or twice. Was shit at them because my adductors were/are weak af. They might be a good thing to throw in to help add some adductor size for me…

Yeah sumos definitely hit the adductors and the hips. I love it. The muscle memory from all those years of hockey probably has something to do with why I feel stronger in that position than traditional.
