Day 12 and 13

Just a quick note here: I figured out my DL stance after narrowing my feet to just about hip width with my feet splayed a touch outward, it made all the difference in the world.  Again, I must emphasize the importance of individual adjustments made within the general definition of what is and is not proper form for a given movement pattern.  For me, a narrower stance feels good, allows me to keep the bar in good alignment relative to my shoulder girdle, and ensures that my hip movement starts at the correct time (when the bar reaches just below my knee).  For others, it may be an entirely different setup, but the inidicators of a good lift will remain the same.

Day 12
Deadlift–2 x 5 x 205 (narrowed stance and *poof* all is right with the world)
Incline–2 x 5 x 200 (maybe a bit too heavy [not really, but considering the purposes and feel of this program], but I’m gonna stick with it)
Pullups–1 x 5 x -50; 1 x 5 x -45 (move down felt great)
Creds–1 x 10 x 45 (each side)
Rollouts–1 x 5 (all solid & horizontal)

Day 13
Deadlift–
2 x 5 x 205 (felt good)
Incline–2 x 5 x 200 (still a bit heavy)
Pullups–2 x 5 x -45 (all good)
Creds–1 x 10 x 45 (each side)
Rollouts–1 x 5 (getting better)
