Glutes & Legs Workout

Today I did most big lifts that I didn't get to do on Sunday. Boy today's workout felt super hard for some reason. It could be because I'm already on the 4th day without any carbs. Plus in the middle, I felt stomach discomfort. Not to mention I had quite poor sleep last night because it was so darn hot and humid. I woke up a couple times because it felt super stuffy and no breeze at all. However, despite all of those, in the end I powered thru the entire workout!


BB Glute Bridge / standing hip abduction 20x@ each
2x95lbs x20 - warm up set
3x115 lbs x15 - rough last 3 reps

BB deadlift
85lbs x 10- light
95lbs x8- mod heavy/ checked form making sure arched back
95lbs x 10- ok

Question: 20lbs is the weight on each side so total weight is actually 40lbs. Should I write it as 20lbs or 40lbs?
