Shanker: Deload Week DL's and Things of That Nature

Warmup:
Jog 1/2 mile
Cat/Camel 16
Cult yoga prayer doohickey 16
Fire Hydrants 16

Working Sets:
Deadlift (From negative of 1 of those plyo steps w/o shoes) 133x10; 199x10; 243x10; 310x8
Very happy with these...as everything came up very easily. My hips are still shooting up, which Danny diagnoses as an inner thigh weakness, hence the following sets of leg presses. I'm inclined to think hes right, as my lower back feels (and looks) as strong as its ever been. I thought DL'ing from a negative would help me, but apparently it didn't. One more thing of note...my back didn't really arch and was pretty straight the entire time. I think this is a good thing as my my hips have a natural anterior tilt. Keeping my hips square with my body prevents impulse on my spine and hence the inflammation caused along L4 and L5 that gave me so much trouble from February to May.

Leg Press (Feet, knees in to hit inner thigh) 3 platesx12; 4 platesx12; 5 platesx8; 6 platesx6; 6 platesx3 (Fail)
So...yesterday Gordon identified a slight clicking noise in my right knee as my knee bend breaks 90. Needless to say during legpresses this was extremely disconcerting...definitely need to get this checked out, as I'm pretty sure this is a fairly new occurrence.

Russian Barbell Twist 25x17; 50x12

Hey, it's a deload week. I was particularly pleased my dancing today to said horrific 80's music. Michael can attest I took a bad thing and made it 10 time worse.
