Another friday night session.

Deads
120x8
140x8
150x6 had a bit of a break between the 3rd and 4th as i was creamed.

shrugs
46x8x8x8

lat pull down
87x8x8
94x8 these are coming along nicely!!
I wana be able to wide grip myself for about 8-10 times by end of summer so its looking good.

Lower back machine
91x8
98x8
105x8 Did these nice and slow as my back was nakered from deads.

reverse butterfly machine
42x8x8
46x6

Tri cable Pull downs
70x10x10

Maybe should do some more on my triceps as there a bit more important than biceps i feel.

routines starting to have same amont of volume as my old 'bodybuilding' sessions so i reckon my muscles have got used to this again from the heavy, intense 6x3 i did a few weeks ago as ive got more energy towards the end of my sessions.

On a further note, feel im plateauing on my deadlifts considerable.
I moved at the right time from bench pressing to DBs so lifts have still gone up but i reckon i need to change deads to something else.
But even if im not going up the weights, im growing well off deadlifts.

Any ideas?

Powercleans could be an option bro, 1 week deads 1 week powercleans I have seen in a couple of routines. When I drop the fat Im going to change my training to more explosive style and try and keep between 14-15st.

Oceana thursday?
