I think 50lbs was too big of a jump. Looks like you just got excited and jumped the gun.
Personally on deads I try to keep the jumps to 40lbs or less. Squats I prefer 20-30. And bench is 20lbs or less. Maybe other people see it differently.

Definitely, bro. I'm gonna try 385 next week. Even if I hit 385, thats a 20 lbs PR and over 16 weeks that equals to 1.25 lbs per week. So that is something to smile about 
But, my goal is to nail 405 before Christmas.

Beginning Thoughts:
This is for Wednesday. I know I just did a lower workout yesterday but since I only did deadlifts and a few reps at that, I decided to go in today. Workout:
Anderson Front Squats
225 lbs x 1 rep
235 lbs x 1 rep
245 lbs x 1 rep
255 lbs x 1 rep
265 lbs x 1 rep
I stopped at 265. I will have videos of all of these sets later tonight...
SSB Good Mornings
bar x 6
+20 lbs x 6 reps
+40 lbs x 6 reps
+50 lbs x 5 reps x 3 sets
Cable Wood Chops
17.5 lbs x 12 reps
22.5 lbs x 12 reps
27.5 lbs x 12 reps x 2 sets Overall Impression:
Great workout. Anderson Squats were fucking awesome!!!
Tonight (Thursday) I am gonna do some solid Upper Body Work.
Looking forward to maxing next week...

Thank, IW.
I like the SSB because it just seems a bit more convenient to use on good mornings. Like Ross said: it also places the bar higher up. It shifts the weight a bit.

I love the SSB...when I hurt my shoulder & was unable to do BB squats, I was still able to do SSB squats. They're obviously great for good mornings also. It moves the weight pretty high up. Lots of quad activation. I like to do narrow stance squats with it.

Cool
