ROMANIAN DEAD LIFT

Everything felt like crap today. The sumo stance deads were hurting my hip on the front, so I switched to conventional. My back felt okay, but still had some tightness. After the first set of RDL, I nearly passed out. Did another set and gave up. I don't think I ate enough pre-workout. I'm having some residual pain on the right side of my lower back as usual. It's not as bad as it has been.
