Notes
-Solid session considering it was the third consecutive day of lifting.    With squats weds, BB row yesterday, and push press directly before,  I was prepared for a crappy pulling day.   I was surprised at the bar speed on deadlifts.  Form felt tight and crisp.  RPE was all over the place because I kind of realized mid workout I need to stop pulling how I expected to feel, and just move the bar with the strength I had today.

-I'm undecided on the oly shoes for deadlifts.  I felt noticeable higher, but I like my hip position better, so I don't know yet.  At worst its like I'll be pulling mini deficit deads.
