Friday is row day on the Concept 2 erg.
15x100m sprint with 45 seconds rest.
All between 17 and 16 seconds with 2 exceptions which reached 18 seconds.
Didn't crush it, but didn't sandbag it either.
Powerlifting expert Joe Sarti came by in the afternoon and helped me with the deadlift. He knows his stuff and has possibly the prettiest looking deadlift I have ever seen.
Two things he said that really made a difference were really cinching down the armpits and the lats and bring the hips through much faster at the top of the lift. instead of just straightening the back, driving the hips forward like on a Russian swing speeds up the lift and reduces the time the back is under load.
It all helped a lot.
Worked up to 365 for a triple.
