Push-pull: Bench and deadlift

Today started as a Kazmaier lift - bench with shoulders.  I like to periodically find guys' lifts and replicate them to see how I do.  I did really light weights on the upper body stuff as my shoulders were a bit stiff today.  As the lift went on, I had energy, so I added some deadlift, and some rehab work, along with some abs that left me cramping by the end.

Here is a video of the deadlifting I did.  I call these lockouts.  Some people call them rack deadlifts.  I situated myself so that the bar was mid-kneecap which is a point of weakness for me.  This is an awkward position from which to generate power as you have no speed from the low end, no acceleration and are really just powering through a sticking point...fun stuff!  I felt pretty good about doing 2 reps on 585 since I tore a callous off my left hand on the final rep...no choice but to stop there for the day!!!
