Squat for 2/13

135x5
225x5
315x5
315x5
315x5
315x5
315x5
385x1

385 after the work sets killed me. In fact, I felt that I might have not hit a true full squat with the 385 which really pissed me off. Felt very controlled, just didn't feel strong coming up. Not sure what to do at this point to reach 400. I feel like my gains are slowing big time and it may be time to up the reps and lower the weight. I am also cutting which has to impact me in power.

Prior body weight was 195lbs, and I am down to 185lbs in 2 weeks...
