Performance Day today

Had a pretty good session all up.I equaled last weeks effort on squats,I did a 3rd but completely lost the rep, it was a real stinker so Im not counting it.Bench was Fucking awesome I felt very strong today and added weight to try for a single.The 1st rep ended up flying off my chest so I did a 2nd, I was very pleased.Hit a weight PR on chins too but only managed 4 reps.

Performance Day 30/11/07
Squat 1x2 107.5kg
Bench 1x2 85kg (PR)
Chin 1x4 BW+18.5kg (PR)

I tried my best on squats to stay tight, and I prestretched my calves as you said Eric,my only problem was I found myself concentrating so hard on my back during squats I forgot to keep the toes from poppin up!! must be my short attention span! I will keep working and stretching.Its funny I did some light box squats below parallel and had no probs with the back at all, I also liked the fact that I could pause and get tighter on the box before I drove up, my arch on the way up was definately better off the box.Might have to seriously consider some box work if the squat stalls due to form issues.
