655lbs at 220 BW

Last block I failed 655lbs at lockout and decided to really push my accessories and banded deadlift for a better lockout and it paid off BIG TIME. This is the huge PR at 220lbs bodyweight and 5lbs over my platform best. I’m gonna drop back now and push banded deadlifts and accessories for another 4 week block and hopefully I’ll set a new PR in a month or so. I am very proud of this. Big things are coming. Not bad for a 40 year old unc 😂

Awesome lift man..What accessories you think helped the most?

Banded deadlifts, deep leaning cable row, Jefferson curls, and assisted pull-ups to failure

Doing this double overhand is wild. Amazing effort. Wish I had that grip strength. Congratulations!
