    If you're going to the gym anyway then start warming up with the squat as you normally would, if you feel good then move up to a working set if not then skip squats or use slightly lighter weight.
    Squat: 202.5kg | 446lbs
    Bench: 125kg | 275lbs
    Deadlift: 235kg | 518lbs

    Sore as in you injured yourself, or sore as in doms? If its doms you should be fine to squat, try foam rolling your back sh!t works wonders.

    If you have a steam room or sauna, sit in there before you workout and stretch your legs. It feels great and gets you ready for your workout
    Bench - 295

    Squat - 375

    Deadlift - 405

    Work your way up to a heavy squat, start light and add weight. If it feels bad dont do it though, messing your back up is bad news
    I used to lift
    Now I get triggered by people's poor form while they lift heavier weights than I can

    warm up well and use spinal alignment techniques. ex. for warm up after you do dynamic stretches do bodyweight squats, then lunges, then step ups and this will help to align your spine. after that I would do an activation technique such as planks to get your core and glutes to fire correctly when you squat so there is no break in the chain
