#legday was hard today. Had the feeling of dizziness during #deadlift
It's only 140kg (what I would still consider #Lightweight ) but I couldn't lift it more than 2 times in a row. So I tried to get as much as possible with a #pittforce approach.
#diet now finally show's it's effects on my performance. It's still 1 week left before making the Xmas break and evaluating things for the coming year.

@TheGymNerd I did not do any deadlifts for a long time, but I never lifted over a 160kg.
One has to consider if he wants to be a powerlifter or a bodybuilder, which isn't the same.
It's nice for the ego to lift over 200kg, but in the long run it wil wreck your body.
Durability and endurance is better.
@sergeant that is so true! And I learned it gets even more true the older you get.
Trained a lot with some young people (21 yo) in the last year, all doing crazy weights around 200kg for #deadlift and #squat
My best weight would be around 180 and everything hurts for days, except the muscle that should be targeted. So while I was done for the week the other guys had no problem in doing the next PR a day later 😅
Had much better experience when going back to lower weight but higher focus.
