I think it will be a while before you will need a belt for anything and that is usually when you are working with some super heavy stuff trying to set a record and things like that.

Are you saying that the weight is too heavy for me? Or that it's just what happens when working with heavy weight?
The second one . Believe me I wouldn't be that ambiguous. If I thought the weight was TOO heavy for you I would say exactly that but there wouldn't be too much point on this format anyway because when things become too heavy for you you damn well no it, lol. Now, that being said, how long you can continue to progress in this fashion is anybody's guess, but just keep the attitude you have and go for it.

I don't think your knees were too far forward. Can you do anything different and still squat down that far? No, I think your kness are doing what they have to do. I didn't pick up on any appreciable back rounding (I will watch again) but it it's there it's probably when your go a little lower than your flexibility and control allows so the lower back relaxes. Mind you I can't tell any of these things for sure from a video. If I was standing right there I might see something but it is certainly nothing glaring.

Again, remember what I mentioned about backoff sets. If you feel bad about the last few reps of your sets or whatever and don't want to end the day on that note then you can lighten up and do some for practice.

Cool on having the Otomix shoes. Let me know what you think of them.

Go to Phil's journal for ideas on microloading weights.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
