Really tried slowing down my descent in my Squat, and concentrate on cues during the ascent, still dive bombed the 415...decided to subtract Bench from today...being my 1st week back, biceps were still really tender...added BW Dips @ the end...really wanted a 3rd rep Conv @ 440, but called it quits after 2, back was just not having it...

Slippin...best warm up song ever.

Your pause squats are so on point, that I'm wondering if in order to fix the dive bomb squat, just think of yourself doing pause squats when you're training your main lift squat - but with less of a pause? Heh.

False... DMX's "Top Shotter" = best warm up song...why?...anytime a man talks about rippin' another man's butthole out of place, someone seems destined to smash a PR...it's science...

it's easily a mental thing for me...being so used to trying to take advantage of a rebound...at minimum, I think I may semi pause all warm up reps from here on out, until it becomes second nature, or at least that's the goal...

Strong work, my man. Don't know how you do it on that schedule.

Thanks Al...I've learned to not feel sorry myself, and make no excuses...My Rack is in an area I pass to and from work, just to remind me of that..
