Big Strong Guys

This morning at the gym I saw 4 guys do 405 deadlifts for reps. One of them was 18 and weighed 150 soaking wet. That is getting into some serious weight for amateur lifters. Impressive and demoralizing. Guess I just have to get stronger.
Today's Workout:
Standard W/U except I did the stair thing for 3 minutes. That's harder than I remember it being.
Squat
5 @ 60
5 @ 75
5 @ 90
5 @ 100
5 @ 115
5+ @ 130 (got 6)
Bench Press
5 @ 70
5 @ 85
5 @ 100
5 @ 110
5 @ 130
5+ @ 145 (got 6)
Leg Press 3 x 7 with the sled + 90 lbs.
Pull Up speed day 10 x 3 on 1 minute with 110 lbs of assistance
V-up 3 x 6
Back extension 3 x 6
I got there early today and that was good because, including stretching, I was there for 2.5 hours.
A little twinge in my right shoulder and chest on the bench. Nothing major and continuing didn't seem to make it worse.
Back pain is diminishing I just need to continue rolling it out a couple of times each day.
There is no further info today. See you on Friday.
