Still hard at it AJ, I see your squats are building up some good numbers and your pressing is still strong as Faak! So strong on the bench the other day, mirin!

Thanks, brah. I may draw the line at 315 for squatting, just maybe increase the reps w/that amount over time if my strength goes up. I took such a long break from squats that my form is also not great. Depth isn't really the problem as much as leaning over my toes.

Ya squats are always a work in progress for me as well. I am gaining some strength right now but just can't get consistent with depth yet. For the most part I was able to get rid of my forward lean. I used to force my head back and up coming out of the hole, and this actually make my forward lean worse. It would round my upper back and put me more forward.
I started looking down at the floor a little ways in front of me and keeping my neck more neutral and it really helped my bar path. Might be something to try.
As well ankle flexibility is a huge contributor to getting on your toes, so stretch out the calves and Achilles' tendon before you squat and see if that helps!

If you haven't posted a video, you should. It's actually pretty natural for your knees to travel over your toes. As long as your heels aren't coming up off the ground and you're not feeling pain, I think you're ok. If you look at any oly lifter, you'll see that their knees are over their toes when they squat.

I finished my 12 week program and am now going to be deloading for 1-2 weeks doing mainly running and skipping rope.
I really liked this last program, having switched from one body part per day back to core lifts twice a week (heavy and light). It's certainly more work/more hours in the gym, but I added some nice mass.

[QUOTE=Jtbny;1451346163]Squatting every other day? Numbers are looking good there.[/QUOTE]
Twice a week. Heavy (for me) day and a lighter day. If my schedule goes as planned (which is a rarity with 3 kids in activities) I prefer to squat on Sundays and Thursdays.

I hear that! Having the stuff to do it at home rather than go to a gym is a plus though!

You bet. I've been home gym since 2003. I could join a regular gym now that my kids are old, but no point now since I own virtually everything I want/need for equipment. Do wish I had a little more space though. Maybe next house.... :D
