DL 421# (PR)/426# (Fail) = 421#

I increased 35.5# from last time so I'm pretty stoked about that. I increased 0.16 # for # to 4.31# for every # of body weight. I could have gotten the 426# deadlift, but my grip failed. Evan showed me some fixes for that, so I'll try those next time. Overall, I'm pretty pleased with my progress. My ultimate goal is to break 1000#. Evan thinks I'll be there in a year. I'm going to try to beat that timeline if I can.
