It took a good few years to be completely pain free. I was pulling 405 with my old foot position but it was putting me a bit too far forward on deads as Aspengc8 pointed out from my video in old thread.
Any thoughts on this Aspengc8 or others?

My thoughts are that pain is not worth a number. As long as you're healthy and strong, just do what you can.
