Stupid sessions, insights and a decent DL

Deadlift 120kg: 5,5;130kg: 5; 140kg: 4; 150kg: 1; 160kg: 1; 162,5 kg: 1; 120kg: 5

Bench press 80kg: 5,5,4,4,3

This week started fine with a LC Personal Best of 41reps with 28kgs Monday. After that I did two bleak sessions Wedensday and Friday. Some weak heavy reps, and some half-hearted endurance lifting - I don't even bother to write it down. Then I read Bolles Blog and saw that after the competition in Russia he did a week of running and some basic barbell lifts. I remebered he did the same after the virtual competition previously, and thought of my own week.

Paul Tucker and other smart people similarly have told me long ago, that after a max effort it is good to shift gears for a couple of days or a week. But doing a PR I got too excited and forgot.
But, today I did some barbell and will not lift kettlebells until I feel it will be productive again (hopefully Tuesday).

Well I did deadlifted 162,5kgs with a clear lockout (bw 81,8kg, not 2xbw though :-). In sum, this week started well and ended good.
