Was able to throw up 90lb dummy’s for some incline press, so hit the 100 lb club hopefully this month, but I’m taking it very slow.

If you are using locked in form then you are less likely to get injured using a deadlift bar vs a trap bar. Trap bar limits your range of motion.
I went to a personal trainer that specializes in power/strongman lifting and got form dialed in perfectly. Once that happened it actually reduced a significant hip and lower back pain I was going through.
