Deadlifts

Not good, to the extent that I intended not to post any weights, but decided I may as well.

I couldn't keep my back flat at all at 110kg, my planned start weight.
I barely could at 100kg when I dropped down. In fact I was very worried that I was going to pop something.

Swore a lot.

Dropped to 60kg an did a very slow set of 20 with a serious set-up between each rep. I could just keep my back flat there.

I knew I was in trouble when I was barely able to get my chin over the bar during the dead-hang pull-ups in my warm-up. I think whatever I did to myself in the pull-ups last week is still going on.

On to the foam roller to stretch my thoracic spine again. I'm bowed like a fishing pole with a record catch on the line.
