I'm very happy with my progress in technique and depth of my squat. Decreasing the weight was a great decision. Now I just have to maintain a good depth and technique while making gains each session. If it gets really hard I will just increase by 2 or 3lbs. The deads were solid and pretty easy but I am not going to push it back up too fast. My press was junk today....I was caught leaning back to0 far on the last reps and just lost it. I need to focus more...that's all.

  1. Today was the first time I have joined Sean for Starting Strength. Not that I did it with him ... I pressed ... but I liked watching him lift. It is hard not to loose your back on a back squat. Sean needs to make sure he keeps it back upright at the bottom of the back squat. His press looked very good and he can press more than twice the weight I can. Good job my man! You are going great!
