I bet half of you didn't even lift today

[Grape Ape]

I did try squatting 225 lbs today with my belt and knee wraps on.

I didn’t lift it correctly. The weight made me lean forward too far and my knees went together in the front. Honestly it was heavy and when I started to lean forward I panicked a little.

I need to take a step back and regroup. I wish Pellius was here to help.

Should be simple - Lower the weight and build back up.

If you need a program to increase, Wendler 5-3-1 is easy and free.

Next time send a video. Grape is right though, lower the weight a little and regroup, get your mind in it and try it again.

I’m not going to lie, when I started leaning forward I thought I was going to fold over. I definitely need to get the bar a little lower on my upper back.

I didn’t feel like the weight was squishing me. It seemed like once I started down I had a brief moment of doubt that I would be coming back up and that was enough to make me lose my form.

It was fun though, but oh my I have sore abs.

Get a pair of these shoes (or something similar)

You can also get a squat wedge - you can find various kinds on Amazon

You can also combine the heel wedge with a smith machine like Hunter Labrada is doing here

I already sent you a video message today.  🙋‍♀️

I’m going to get that 531 book on Amazon and put a new plan in place.

Those are really nice weightlifting shoes. I wore my flat sole CrossFit shoes today and we used 10 lb plates under our heels. That wasn’t my idea, the people who were also squatting said that is what they always do.

But I really like those shoes. I wish they had green ones to match my outfits better.

You need to deadlift. Your core is weak and your back loosened up. Deadlifts for life!!

I hate that. I hope your coach isn't doing that.
You don't need special shoes, you need instruction.
