It happened.

Dat puffer-fish face tho.

Anyway, pulled 290 for an easy double today on trap bar deadlift (FYI, trap bar weighs 80lb). I really like the trap bar for deadlifts. It takes a lot of the pressure off of the lower back, and makes for a safer movement than conventional style. I ramped up to that weight, and I'm actually a bit ill that I didn't skip 290 and go straight for 300. I don't max out - I won't do any more weight than I can manage for a solid double. I hope by Christmas I am managing 350ish for at least a double if not a triple.
