Lifting the Dead

Heavy day at CF with 7 sets of one rep deadlift being the order of business. Since I haven't actually done a deadlift outside of last week's 205 for 45 total reps, I had no idea where I should be. After a warmup, went with:
225, 235, 285(f), 275, 275(f), 275, 275(f)

Form was terrible on the up motion, decent on the down. I have trouble setting the start position due to inflexibility, so I will have to work on some stretching. Maybe recruit Melissa in to get me to actually DO the stretching.

Run home- took another wrong turn and ended up doing over 3 miles, rather than the 2.5 it should be. I had increased the weight of the pack by including my "Starting Strength" book, so that could be another reason for the slow run. I am tired and looking forward to having a day off. The deadlifts seem impressive, but I really should be able to pull much more than that. 2 x BW is my goal. That seems like a good segue into a list of my current metrics:

Height: 6'2"
Weight: 178.5 (last night at the gym)
Waist: 33" at belly button
Body fat: 10%

I don't know if that last figure is accurate. I don't feel like I am that lean, but time will tell. I have slipped on my diet a little, as the new BBQ grill has led to an over consumption of fatty meat and some extra grains (hamburger buns). Will work on correcting that tonight with my rest day.
