Awful deadlift session. I thought it would be best to work up after speed sets, maybe I was wrong. Maybe I need more practice in my suit. My suit was loose after my stomach bug on Monday but a wash should tighten it. Maybe I need to pull raw and forget the suit. Maybe I will compete in squat and bench only
Video is below. All comments welcome. I'll edit it to add commentary when I have calmed down later in the week.
Hope to make amends with bench on Friday.
