Dead Lift pain (not)

Car needed some work doing so I ended up walking into the market yesterday.

Came close to 10k steps in total and it was PAIN FREE!!!!

First time in ages I can recall walking that far that comfortably.

Combination of factors helped I think including carbon feet.

I'm pretty sure a significant one was me setting a new dead lift PB a couple of days ago (106kg x5 I think).

 This has made me significantly more aware of my posterior chain and made me feel as if it's really strong. As a result I walk with my weight set back a bit so that my glutes and hamstrings absorb most of the shock from each step. I think this helps take some off the stress off my knees, also moving the point of highest pressure from the spot that is particularly bad.
