I think it's time to add some curls to your training sessions:p


Slow your squat down just a touch, you drop down a little fast.
Read this entry from Bill's blog.

ps. I like how I can just say Bill, and we all know exactly who I'm talking about, even though none of us really know him personally.

thanks dude, i don't think it's descending too fast. I actually think that it's either a form issue i still need to work on, or it's a weak middle back. I'm going to be working on the latter in my workouts, and see how it works out.

I'm also thinking about doing extra workouts once school starts, and maybe do some chest supported rows in the morning, and build up volume, conditioning, and strength in my back

Looks like you are getting stuck in the hole a bit. Box squats perhaps?

the weight feels really, really easy, but i always throw my head forward out of the hole, or, i rise with my hips first, and forget to throw my head back into the bar, so i GM the weight out.

Dan said i have a weak middle back, so i'm going to be targeting that, as well as form

I think you need to stay tighter and be more aggressive with that weight. You have another 50-75lbs+ in you I bet if you really smash the weight.

8-24-07:
Hip Mobility

Deadlifts:
305x3
335x4 (pr. AWESOME!)
275x6 (ouch, and pr, yea!!!)

DB Walking Lunges:
35x10
35x8

Some banded scap work

and that was it. Totally beat. I'm really happy with where my pull is going. 2 weeks after i strained my back, and i pulled a big rep pr, which felt great. I probably would have been able to get 5 on 335, and maybe more on 275, but i'm happy!
