Hi guys,
This is probably a foolish question, but perhaps someone can help anyway
I've been making pretty good progress with my lifting and have been steadily increasing all my weights. With the deadlifts, I think I've been going up about 10lb a week. Yesterday I did my deadlifts with a 70lb barbell and that was fine and I assume that this week or next I'll move up to 80lb and so on.
The trouble is that I had a little bit of difficulty moving the 70lb barbell around when I
wasn't deadlifting it--you know, pulling it on and off the rack and carrying it to the step I use, hoisting it back up when I put it down in between sets and so on. My upper body just isn't as strong as my lower body, even though I've been making progress with that too. I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to wander around the gym with the barbell when I get up to 90 or 100lb for my deadlifts. Is there some way around this? Has anyone else had this problem? And what did you do? Is there some machine or rack or something that helps with this?
Thanks for any assistance you're able to offer!
