In the back squat, my arms are still in the "up" position... I'm sorry, I didn't mean fully overhead. But when I put the broomstick on my traps and open the chest out, I'm back to struggling with BW... which leads me to think... my form must be incorrect still. *sigh* I WILL GET THIS.

I have no foam roller right now, and I think if I went out and bought one DH would have a fit about the "stuff" in the house. Is there a good substitute? I have a yoga mat rolled tightly - would that work, do you think?
