I've been doing New Rules of Lifting for the last 6 weeks or so and had gotten up to a 105 pound deadlift: 3 sets of 10 reps.

Today, when I was done with that I increased the weight to 145 just out of curiosity... and I lifted it!!!

It's such a great feeling. The scales hasn't moved much in the last couple of months so knowing that I'm getting stronger is keeping me motivated :D

    That is truly awesome! You are doing great, and even if the scale hasn't moved, I am willing to bet there is difference in your body composite! Keep up the great work!

    Congrats! I need to try this. I've been adding weight to my deadlifts very, very slowly, and have not even tried to figure out what my max is.
