what was with the 183x5? Just form practice?

For form, I'd practice singles. After all, there is no negative on the deadlift so for form work, there's not much need to work on reps (for someone like you).

I'll keep that in mind. I was trying to work on using good form but I was really tired from the previous set so I picked the weights kind of lazily and ended up going way too light.

So should I use moderately heavy singles if I'm practicing form then?

yeah, about 65-75% of your max (this is what Diablo does on speed days)
