Interesting session today. Due to the snow I trained 11am - 12.30pm, I'd only had my breakfast shake before training :)

Before starting my squats I did 5 way shoulder stretch and the 'no money drill' which really helped with my position on the bar.

Squats
60x10
90x6
110x4
130x3 - felt some discomfort in my right hip
130x3 - fine now.
160x2
180x2
185x2 - Missed a little depth on the first rep, and 2nd was grindy. Think it looks better than the 180 I did after. Video below.
180x2 - video below. Happy with the power. Not happy that a) my left knee is **** and b) my stance isn't even. FUUU!
160x2 - explosiveness

Need to work on this left knee business, it's pretty annoying.

Offset Reverse Lunges
Glute Med Bands

185x2: (video says 180, forgot to change it from the other video...)

180x2: left knee and uneven stance! FML :mad:
Left knee is probably a lot to do with the uneven stance. Speed was good though.

I think the angle of the first vid amplifies the issue with your left knee, and it doesn't look to major, especially as your conscious of it :)

Speed on the 180's was very nice, especially as you were defiantly uneven in setup, and came off the rack wobbly. Looks like your getting some confidence back with your squats which is good :)
 
For the most part yes, just need to be careful to keep things tidy.

I need to practice squatting without a mirror in front of me. It may be a tough lesson.
 
Decided to train tonight as the roads are getting pretty bad here and no idea how they will be tomorrow.

Comp prep 2 weeks out. Working up to a single at max or around 95% and keeping assistance light.

Deads
70x8
100x5
120x3
150x2
180x1
200x1
220x1
240x1 - (96% of RM) felt slow but watching the video back wasn't too bad. Form is my usual special style that seems to work.

One Arm Standing Cable Rows (per side)
23x10
27x10 - cables seem stupidly light at this new place.

Pull ups
6, 6

5 way shoulder mob and 'no money drill' + band shoulder dislocations.
