@Jester: How are you performing your FP deads?
Do you usually lower your deads under control or do you not bother with the eccentrics? I see so many vids of quite powerful deadlifters dropping bars in training that I'm beginning to wonder if this is why my lower back takes more of a beating than is really necessary.

I do a natural tempo controlled eccentric.
Dropping (if one can) is ideal for PR testing and unnecessarily slow eccentrics will send DOMS through the roof.
I think your back is just accommodating to the change in programming. And you really should be feeling it in the glutes more than back.
Form check?
Please say that's 12 X 1 X 235? I wouldn't be all that surprised if you did 12 reps with 235 but then I noticed it was at a deficit! Anyway, nice dead session as always.
