In preparation for USAPL Nationals in June, I wanted to train my central nervous system with some heavy deadlifts. I don't train in my gear that often and so I need to be more consistent, adapting to heavier weight. Today was a good day.
In the USAPL, they don't allow a deadlift bar and so I have been training with a multi-purpose bar. It is not the USAPL official Q Bar but it does have less flex and a higher degree of difficulty. So far...so good. We will see how it translates next month.
