FUNCTIONAL FOCUS- DEADLIFT

We worked on deadlift form. I spent the whole time working on the closed form as I typically do the sumo stance and would like to be able to do either stance well. I went to 185#, probably could've went higher and kept good form. I continue to work on it.

TGUs and FRONT SQUATS (3x1 for each exercise)

052009- TGU- 45#barbell, 35#bb, 35/3bb
FS- 155#, 170#, 180#

New PR on the front squats can't remember if it's a 5# or 10# PR.

The TGUs were a bit difficult. This is the first time I've done them actually since taking time off for my shoulder. The 45# set actually felt a little heavy even though I have done more weight. I could feel a bit of stretching or pulling through my shoulder, so for the next 2 sets I went down to 35#. Better to start a little lighter and re-gain that bit of strength needed to do these again at heavier weights.
