Full body: Heavy weight

Back into the gym for the first time since Thursday last week, following a much-needed rest. I started with something simple and didn't overdo my workout.

Bench press - small bench, 6 holes:
95 x 6
105 x 5
115 x 5
125 x5
135 x 3
140 x 1

======

Trap bar deadlifts:
170 x 10
220 x 5
260 x 3
280 x 1
290 x 1
300 x 1
310 x 1
320 x 1
325 x 1
330 x 1 (PR)



Last time I did these my form on the heavier weights was awful, with my back rounding a lot. This time - at least from the angle I used for this video - was much better, until the last set. That was a PR at 330lb and my back rounded enough for me to call it quits. Even then, I think my form was better than last time. Not wearing shoes definitely helped.
