Doing a progressive overload routine and finally failed a deadlift set at 117.5 kg - even the deload is around the max I was at before (over a year ago or so) so I’m actually pretty psyched, even though I failed the set.
I think I was a little too scared of the weight the last time I was working out, but my form seems good now. Only issue I’m going through is the bar scraping my shins and knees, especially while lowering the weight.
This is great! I don’t know if you record your sets to watch your technique, but it helps immensely.
I have some thoughts about why you may be hitting your knees/shins on the way down. If you want to send a couple videos I can help you out. Or I can just give you my 2 cents without them.
