Wasn't really feeling the squats today.
I met a guy there who used to be a powerlifter. His best lifts were 700, 605, 600, squat/bench/deadlift.
We were sharing a rack. He told me I need to improve my back strength, and really focus on driving my head up and starting the lift by pushing my back into the bar instead of pushing up with my legs. He said my ass lifts before I do lol.
Not coincidentally, this is the same thing you guys were telling me a while ago.
So I'll try and work on that stuff again.
I'm also going to bring goodmornings back into my training. I think that should clear up a few problems I'm having with my lifting.
No more lifting until after the appointment on tuesday.
