Said in a very high pitched voice "Yeah buddy nothing but a peanut!"
Very nice job on the DL's and presses. Is that the hip flexor mobilization that Eric Cressey had in his video a couple of Mondays ago? Where you hold the ankle of the leg behind up next to your butt so that the leg you are stretching the quad is in flexion when you stretch the hip flexor.
Those cossack squats are interesting. My buddy who trains with me has limited flexibility and we have been working on it and these are going to fit the bill for what we need to achieve.

Nice Deads. Any idea what the 1 rm may look like on the DL?

Yes that is that from the video, I liked it definitely something to add to my collection of prehab exercises. The cossak is good, never really put it in there with any frequency so I'm going to try what the Diesel Crew guys suggested.
And no that was not at Benning when I was there, damn!

According to the equation that Wendler gives I'd be at a 410 DL.

Thanks, I just want to be able to keep up with the gym, wasn't able to go at all last week hence all the KB stuff. Forgot my military ID in my car in DC. My plan is to try to hit the gym on base at least once a week by me. It's like 20 minutes away so not ideal but better than nothing. I'm going to alternate the squat/bench day with the DL/military press day.
