BOOM! 80kgs! This is my client Emily, sadly after nearly 2 years it was her last session with me this morning as she takes on new life adventures too far from Richmond. She has been an amazing girl to train, and will be missed! You have to go out with a bang so her program was periodized over the last few months to make sure we could go out smashing so PBs. With a 80kg Dead (1RM) and 40kg Bench (3RM) we did just that! Ems always been a strong dead lifter (preferring conventional over sumo, making her unique from the majority of females I train) and she pulls with incredible speed. Speed is very advantages in max strength lifts. Superstar deadlifter! Weakness is in breaking the floor and bottom end strength, so we cycled in some deficits Deads to bring up the bottom end strength. And with an additional 10kgs on her PB today, they paid off! Bottom end still needs some work, rhythm was a little out this morning (straightens through her legs too early) but unquestionably stronger breaking the floor! Kick arse work!
