Hi Pauline!

I am so impressed with your workouts! I just picture this tiny little lady in the gym deadlifting some serious weight!

Personally, I am not very flexible and I hate any set with enough reps that I have to go lighter than 135 since it makes the bar lower. And I'm a lot taller than you! I have read the advice to not take the bar so low that you lose the arch in your lower back. That range of motion would be different for every person and hopefully would improve with time.

Hope you're enjoying your rest week!
