I used my phone to video my squats and was not happy with what I saw. The bar is getting low and traveling in a straight line but my ass needs to go lower. After talking with a coworker the potential fix is that my feet are not wide enough. I will apply this technique correction on my next leg day.
I also feel that I need an overall break from 5x5 maximum sets. I am seriously considering doing my 5 sets of 15, 12, 10, 8, 6 on all major exercises for a while until I am ready to get back to 5x5. Maybe once my 5th set 6 rep high equals my 5x5 high then I can go back to 5x5 and increase weight.
Warm Up:
- 30 Sit Ups
- 20 Judo Pushups
Leg Routine - Do 1 set at ½ weight for ten reps to warm up and focus on form, then 5 sets of 5 reps each at max weight.
