Dead Night

Spud wanted to try some rebound deadlifts where you start from the top and almost bounce the weight off the floor then come up. This sounds good in theory...it even sounds easier....It's not.
405 X 2, 495 X 2 conv, 495 X 2 sumo, back down to 405 for 4 sets of 2-3 reps. It was a weird feeling.....kinda like you when you deadlifted in highschool, where you would drop the weight as hard as you can hoping it would bounce enough to get another rep out of it.
I wanted to practice the hook grip a little so I pulled singles with 405, 495 and 585. I finally figured out how to put my now not so fat fingers to make it less painfull and it felt like my grip could hold a lot more.
