So, I think I posted about my squat session from last Thursday - if not, it went a little something like 205 for a top set of 4. Tonight I did that same weight for 5 sets of 3. I got really upset after the first set, because my form was total shit and honestly I was being a giant baby. SO, I sucked it up and got my mind right and went to work. This is so much improvement. I was also really really pleased to use my own belt (it's been in retirement for almost exactly one year to the day). Tonight was hard, and it challenged me in a way I haven't felt in a long time. I really had to push through for those reps and I actually would've preferred to quit half way through, but I had no pain and I knew I had to keep going. Tonight showed consistent progress - something I haven't had in quite some time.
