Today was tough.  Squats went well but by the time the 455's rolled around I was starting to fade.  Got through them like a champ though.  Pin pulls were a different story.  Where I set the pin is essentially the toughest spot to do a dead lift from.  You get zero leg drive and therefore zero momentum to pull back and clear the knee.  At its core it's a very heavy RDL.  The 600 pin pull felt harder than when I pulled it from the floor a few months ago.  I gave 630 a few tugs but by that time I was shot.  This one might take a while to recover from.
