Well it has been a month and the Deadlift Demon has been picking on me. I could see it each and every time I went to the gym. It grinned, sneered, and called me chicken. I began to doubt myself. I began to plot the Demons death. Oh I was crafty. I pretended that I did not care and stopped the deadlifts for a while. It soon began to chase others there and last night while it was picking on some chest and bi guys I snuck in some deadlifts! I got it!!! I hit 375x3 reps, then, before the Demon could see I loaded 405 on the bar. I chanted "only 30lbs" over and over and over. I lifted the bar, and got the rep I have been training for for the last 3 months!!!! I did it!!!!!!

Key words: ...ARE GOING TO HIT 420...!!! Failure is NOT an option. We WILL do it. I'm already pumped up for it, Mutt.
