This week for deadlift was some singles at 85% for my competition-style (conventional) deadlift. My other weeks have been sumo deadlift variations as I've been working on building up my hip strength. Pulls felt pretty good today, it took a few sets to get in a groove but they moved pretty fast.
Warm-up: Chris Duffin Lower Body Warmup

...jump in the car and head over to my buddy Erik's storage unit so I could use a deadlift bar and some chalk.
