The squats felt pretty good today and looking at the video I would have rated the 405 an 8.5. My bench was not feeling too good and once I switched to the 2ct pauses, I realized that I was touching about 2 inches high on my chest.

*This would have been a bodyweight press, but on video review i unlocked my knees during the "bounce."
**promptly got a charley horse in my right quad and almost bilaterally with the weight over my head while trying to be strict about keeping my knees locked.
