Ok, I'll try that, thanks!

Feb 17/08

Weight: 227

My front delts and upper pecs are sore..

Guess I was wrong to cut the push-ups in favor of more bench and military presses..

3 mile walk with 40lbs pack..

warmups look alot better. don't forget to drop back down after that 3 x 3...and see how many good reps you can get in with say...190.

You mean for the squat or the bench?

Felt good for the squat..

I got a while before I hit the wall, there, I think..

For the bench, it felt ok as well..

Will definitely get a spotter though, for 210..

Man.. WHY am I @!*!@ looking DOWN on the way down???!!

Oh well.. Back seems okay after a day..

Wanted to show you guys what it looks like for me when my butt is in the air, and my legs are straighter, and how they are when I bend my legs more..

I did a few with my butt in the air, then some more from a more crouched position..



Looks to me that my back is rounded when I try to keep my butt up more..

Thoughts?

(and please disregard the "looking down" abortion.. )
