Notes: As much as I woulda loved to see a 6 as the first number, this is still technically a lifetime PR.  The only time I ever pulled a max single on an axle, it was 585, so metric PR.  It was on a smaller axle too, so there's that.  The 585 felt awful, but looking on the video it really wasn't that bad.  Clearly I struggle with the axle more than the deadlift bar, so I'm thinking of sticking with it for the future to build up my strength.  I will of course be moving soon, so that will fall apart, but when my life returns to normalcy it's the gameplan moving forward.


Was playing Nine Inch Nails' "Ruiner" during the attempt, and the lyrics are true.

You didn't hurt me,
Nothing can hurt me,
You didn't hurt me,
Nothing can stop me now
