Thanks, Ed. It's been a special challenge getting my training in the last few weeks, but it's worth it.

I'm just doing some sumo as supplement work. Hopefully it will be a good way to add some pulling volume without frying my lower back. I will be working hard to get my DL up over the next couple of months!

That's what I thought. I was thinking about adding sumos, too. What I am doing now (deficits, sgdl, and paused dl) are working for me, so I don't need to switch necessarily, but rotating things might be healthy.

Yes sometimes the change is good. I'm trying to get my head in a place to really make some more pulling progress here. :-)

I need to stop making small set up errors and just get better at them. You know, just do it right! Haha.

I'll be watching and learning from your programming, as always!

No joke, travel for 3.5 weeks, returning to all this volume, and stacking too many training days in a row is wearing me out. :-0 But then I always find it to be a shock to return to volume work after a meet. I know what it is, but I have to wrap my head around it!
