Cool, I don't remember anything crazy happening but I might be that there is just something small going on. In fact don't worry too much about it just next time you get one I try to remember to check. In the mean time grip the hell out of the bar when it is on your back, try and pull it onto your back so hard that it breaks and try and crush it in your hands. The extra tension in the muscles around your wrist will hopefully help to stabilise your wrists.

Aye hopefully 
Just feels like they bend backwards too far, think it's general mobility in the shoulders stopping me, as my elbows probably flare backwards a fair wack

Heavy arsed squats mate
Are you following any sort of programme for your squats? Or is it a case of go heavy and lower when you have to?

Absolutely shattered today so volume a little lower across the board and legs are still ruined from Friday.
Nice PB on bench though, had to have a rest pause before the forth rep because my back was cramping up again
.
Also had a sympathy injury for Ice when he did whatever he did with his hamstring. For some reason I got a savage cramp running up the right hand side of my spine. Like Ice's it doesn't appear to be a big deal but it hurt a lot at the time, but following a huge amount of rolling, general smashy smashy and a hot shower it is feeling much better.

BOOM! Stealth PB incoming!
Deadlift
195kgx5
Where did this come from?
190kgx5
190kgx5
High Bar
90kgx8
100kgx6
100kgx6
120kgx5
Dips
3x10xBW
Kroc Rows
3x25x50kg
So yesterday was meant to be x4 at about 90-95%, but I was feeling good and thought I might go for a 4RM. As soon as the first rep went up I knew it wasn't going to be a 4RM and then the big angry welsh man shouting at me scared me into doing 5
. That's a 10-15kg pb which is epic on a rep max, and if it wasn't for the lumpy platform I reckon I could have squeezed a little more whether that was another rep or a little extra weight although that may be a little bit of a long shot 
.
Another bonus is I have now beaten the big angry welsh man's 5RM bench, he got 185kg . . .
****
Rest of the session wasn't going to be very dramatic after that. I swapped split squats for high bar just for a change, never really done it before but I like it.
Dips were just a token exercise.
Today I feel like I'm going to fall apart now though, my hands are completely ruined after the deads and I have some savage DOMS.

Damn Dom, that's some epic lifting. Do you get any pump/DOMS in the lower back at all?
Soldato
One day...
Caporegime
I think I do the same thing...Lower back tends to get jaffed, and it just feels painful the next day. Must keep my butt down
Thanks .
I've got a busy week ahead of me lifting-wise. I'm doing a 6RM squat tonight, Monday I have a mock meet and then another next Friday. At least Wednesday's session is going to be a quiet one, just some chain pulls and a few other easy things.
It's going to be a fun week.

Chain pull ups, because they make you look boss.
I've never actually done chain pull ups, the few times I did dips with the chains I had to take them across to the civilian side of the gym and everyone was looking at me with a combination of fear and lust 
.
So next Wednesday looks like this:
Paused Squat
Comp bench
Deadlifts with chains
All of them x3 @80% ish.

Hah! Not heard it called the civillian side before
Before I get going I forgot to put up anything about Friday. It was an awful session aiming for 6RM tried 155kg because everything felt awesome but failed the 5th rep after a very comfy 4 which was bizarre, then tries taking it down but got no-where so sacked that off. I did some wide grip which went well and that was about it because we were in a rush that day.
Mock Meet 22/10/2012
Not a lot to say here.
Squat:
155kgx1 easy
165kg X, fell off my back at the top which was weird
165kgx1 also very easy. Happy times.
Bench:
102.5kgx1 really slow, very annoying
107.5kgx1 trying to be a little conservative because of the previous attempt. However it was the easiest rep I've done.
110kgx1 a little slow but still easy
Deadlift:
195kgx1 very comfy rep
210kgx1 very, very slow. None the less I'm mega stoked to get that!
Video only shows top lifts because I'm lazy
Another one on Friday where I will hopefully make a little more progress.
