Compressed this weeks training into 4 consecutive days so was particularly fatigued today. Still went well. This deadlift set of 7 is ~80% of my single from Tuesday. It's a "volume" deadlift slot but a little too heavy for me to do for 2 sets. So just adding 2 reps seems to make the set hard enough to work as a lighter volume stimulus. Might consider swapping out for haltings/rack pulls once it stops working.
