good shit brother. good work on em deads

[ThePman]

TT if you're like most everybody else, you're gonna find that the DL isn't going to play well with volume the way a squat will. You're usually better off doing something like Mrbig suggested, just keeping it to a handful of warmups and then doing one or two hard work sets. It looks like you're tiring yourself out before you get to your top weights.
