Resting 3 minute(s).
All good on these.
Resting 2 minute(s).
All reps felt ok on these.
A little experimental on deadlift. Trying another alternate rather than block pull.
Feeling ok from the floor. Feeling something in the hip but nothing that concerned me and definitely more manageable than the same load doing standard deadlift from the floor.

Resting 3 minute(s).
Top set felt really good, almost a speed rep!
May have misjudged the RPE on this.
Back sets all moving smooth.
No problems from the hips at all.
Resting 2 minute(s).
All good here.
Vast difference this morning compared to yesterday.
First attempt at this session:
Got to mid deadlift warmups and the left hip started complaining.
Called it for the day early to prevent more significant issue.
Will rehab today and re-attack this session tomorrow morning with block pulls.
Seems like I can deadlift from the floor for a small training block before having to reset again and as block pulls don’t aggravate anything I’ll continue to do them where deadlifts are programmed.
In the long run I’m beginning to come round to the “deadlifts aren’t worth it” camp when it comes to longevity. As I’m not competing then it doesn’t seem worth the risk of injury.

All ok here. Slowing quickly.
Last set off balance on the last rep so maybe a little short here.
Triceps giving out before chest.
Very late start today. Really warm too.
No problems lifting though.

Resting 3+ minute(s).
Set 3 Rep 5 getting difficult.
Bar started rotating on the left side.
Last set no issues.
Resting 2 minute(s).
All good here.
No major issues today.
Phase 1 completed with no problems.
Numbers going up but may have made to conservative a start.
Felt comfortable adding 5kg to everything each week but will likely slow this down now that Phase 2 work to RPE the percentages.
Feeling good so far. Hopefully this continues.
