Thanks Dom. Hoping to get the 120 deadlift soon as long as my hands hold out! It seems that I'm naturally stronger than anybody, including myself, gave me credit for!

ur deadlift will progress quicker than u think, and if grips a massive problem u can always use wraps. i think u will do very well from what iv seen so far, the yoke was alot better than my 1st few attempts. i was really impressed.

Trained at Gateshead stadium tonight.

Deadlift
60 x 5
80 x 5
90 x 3
80 x 3
60 x 8

Seated oh db
10 x 5
8 x 10
8 x 10

Pull downs
26 x 10
33 x 5
33 x 10

And my hands seem to have survived the deadlifting! Started slipping on the 90 so didn't go any heavier but did cautiously continue with lower weights but that strategy seemed to work so I'm pretty pleased!

Circuits tonight or death by burpees as it's more accurately described. Lots of squats, planks, jacks, crunches and even a tiny amount of bench this week.

Didn't use either in the end so doesn't really matter! I've tried using straps but they always just seem to unravel as I lift so just going to focus on getting my hands tougher for now.

You're amazingly naturally strong for never having done this before, I think on average about a BW dl for a woman is usual. Do you have a particularly athletic family, or any kind of sports background?

I hope you stick with, 'cos I reckon you can go as far as you want. And if you can video your lifts, post them up, you'll get good advice.

ETA; Do you use alternating grip?
