    Haven't shown you the DL before. Was supposed to be a 285 PR, misloaded the right side so I had a 295 PR, 10 lbs heavier on the right. It looks a lot easier on the video. First time trying different mixed grips heavy, the bar literally hung on my right fingertips during the double overhand.

    This is a pretty good heavy set. You just need to get better control over the bar off the floor when you're tired. It gets forward a little toward the end of the set.

    Thanks, the surprise unbalanced 10lbs made it feel really damned heavy, part of the loss of control. Since this was a 15 lb jump over the previous weight, I'm going to do 295 the right way next set, then onwards. Six wheels is well within sight, something I never would have thought was possible when I started. I only make it look easy on video.
