Then I thought, "Frank said I should be able to do 475 for 3 singles; but I think I can do more."
PR: 500 x 1 -- probably a 2-lighter; but good nonetheless)
505 x 0 -- fail. not an epic fail, mind you; but a fail. I got it up past my knees and my whole body was almost convulsing. I dropped it. it was loud.
All in all, a good day. I've bested my previous PR by 40lbs and am convinced I've got 505 in me the next time I deadlift in a couple of weeks. My hands are torn to sh*t; but they're not bleedings, which is good.
Thanks, Frank! And thanks everyone for the encouragement over the years. It's hard to believe that just over 2 years ago, I'd never heard of a deadlift.

Congratz on the massive new PR! So, just one question - what is a 2-lighter?
