Honestly, this was the first time squats felt even remotely natural or comfortable or even strong to me in soOoooOO long.
Probably look worse
Feel a million times better
I felt like I coulda squatted for hours
LIke a million pounds maybe

I guess iā€™ll just do it this way forever regardless of forward lean cause I be in looooooooveeee

Also, I for no reason at all think CSB no longer likes me.

Like it literally changed in 48 hours.

I know sometimes Iā€™m irrational and I make stuff up
Ideas swimming around me head that are Ludacris but are presented to me as fact.
I think like a text without an emoticon means hatred or anger LOL
I donā€™t think its real
but I think itā€™s real
Id think things like this before with marshall too, but lots of times it was real
Not like he stopped liking me just like he was busy impregnating his ex gf or something and couldnā€™t answer me right away hahahha

I have a legit reason to be crazy and paranoid
because in the past things have hurt very badly
so I get scared
about nothing

Run and hide in terror !!! IT"S A>>> ITā€™s AAAAA!!! BUTTERFLY

aHHHhHHH

But maybe I should know its not real because I think it every day about different things
if it was just a one time thing about one thing that seemed off maybe it would seem more real
but its every single day about very stupid shit
and then I typically get reassured in 12-24 hours until a new crazy sprouts

I donā€™t want to be Jenn sometimesā€¦

And now its going into my chest and stair master was hell. Like darth vador I was.
GO AWAY
One week is 6 days too long!!!

NE WAY
Work was crzzzzze yesterday
there was literally a line up to the door aLL. day. long.
One time I got 10 seconds without a client and I just stood there and closed my eyes likeā€¦savour this momentā€¦savouringā€¦savouringā€¦
eyes open
10 people in line again
AH
I guess yesterday was Canadian go do your banking day
BUT
I got 3 credit limit increases and sold travel health protector , LOl
THis is big deal for my sales goals
Youā€¦you have an offer for a credit limit increase, *gulp, would you like to accept this?

Waitingā€¦

Oh, sure I donā€™t care, whatever

TAHNKGOD
I meanā€¦ok sir Iā€™ll process that right away for you :D:D:D

I donā€™t think CSB hates me today
So I guess my cortisol is at a reasonable level
I just donā€™t understand why I donā€™t know when things are real and when things are lies
AM I folded in half when I squat?
Like sometimes I think Iā€™m folded in half and I look at the video and I think no, jenn, this really isnā€™t that bad, itā€™s totally fine.
But then I watch it at a different time when I feel more anxious and im like OMG U FOLDED RIGHT IN HALF LIKE A PEICE OF FLIMSY CARDBOARd

Am I folded in half?
Can someone with logical eyes reassure me /?
Hello?
hellllllllllloooooooooo

Your squat depth looks good, and I wouldnā€™t say youā€™re folding in half, but your butt is coming up first, and then youā€™re driving with your shoulders to catch up, more on some reps than on others. The cue that worked for me with that problem was to focus on driving the bar up with my shoulders as soon as I reach depth and start coming up. Iā€™m no coach, and YMMV, but thatā€™s what fixed it for me.

328

OK SO opinions wanted:

Do yaā€™ll (every single person on the internet , LOL) think I should reduce my planned lbs by about 10-15lbs or so, maybe like 5 on bench, and work back up to correct the imperfections???

329

K SO hereā€™s what Iā€™ve decided to do!! Reduce weight a LITTLE BIT on my lifts, and up my volume so that I can really dial in my form and recollect all the marbles Iā€™ve lost!!

Also I think a huge part of my squat form problems were stemming from the fact that I squat too stupid deep and it makes it like a two part movement.
Ill show you guys what I did today, but I really prefer the look of these!!

K G-damn.

I used to have a training beast that lived inside of me. It could barely be contained long enough to simply endure the drive to the gymā€¦

Now that beast is being devoured by the other beast that lives inside of me (OCD/ANXIETY), and itā€™s been ruining my workouts for at least 10 days.

IMS ICK OF IT!!

No, I canā€™t squat perfectly, but I can squat a lot deeper, and I can get fu#($*ing strong , so enough is enough . JENN !

I had to wait like 25 mins for a deadlift platform
BECUASE OF THAT ABOMINATION OF A HUMAN BEING
AND HIS STUPIDIIFITURhjdfā€™k

He was put on this earth to bother me
This I know

In other irrational thought news

Last night I went to bed feeling sad because my brain decided for me that CSB is not attracted to me (sexually)
And also doesnā€™t like me anymore (like a girl)

I really have no evidence to support this , and I am not sure why it sprouted up, could have been fatigue from a busy day yesterday or just because Iā€™m insane.

Then I told myself I was allowed to wait 3 days before this was allowed to be presented to me as fact.

Like evidence collecting

Random irrational thought
But Jenn, I was to disprove this
Okay, youā€™re allowed 3 days to decide if this is false
So you cant be officially sad about it until 3 days has passed
then youā€™re allowed to believe it and feel sad

Wtf, all of this is absurd

Itā€™s like yesterday I ordered these shoes that say deadlift on them and then for a split second I was worried they were only going to send me ONE SHOE
LMAO
like I had to order a right and a left
I had to laugh at myself
I knew that was false
OH
BUT THIS
this is realllllllll

Fuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkk
Oh well
Tomorrow I get off at 3 and will get to have a bath
THAT WILL FIX EVERYTHINGggggg

LLO
OLL
LOL

Thereā€™s this huge beastly machine of a man that works out like once a month on a Wednesday (HA), and for some reason I always have really good workouts when heā€™s around.
I think heā€™s leaking testosterone

He reminds me of a slimmerish 50 cent
Or likeā€¦
a terminator
if 50 cent were taller and more cut and a terminator that would be him

I guess

my palms are sweaty this is disgusting
WHAT GOIN ONNNN

N-E WAY with regards to yesterdays worrying:

my rational self decided that thereā€™s no possible way to investigate a suspicion by doing absolutely nothing other than waiting.

HOW IS THAT CONDUCTING AN INVESTIGATION ?!

So I decided to ask
Yo, you sexually attracted to me or what, eh?

So he said yes
LOlz

But my irrational self thinks this to be a lie
Except he doesnā€™t lie
I donā€™t think he can?
Like that shitty movie with Jim carry

god he made some awful crap
except that eternal sunshine of the spotless mind was awesome

But I digress,
Maybe Iā€™m not sexually attracted to me so I assume he isnā€™t either

But are people supposed to be sexually attracted to themselves
?
I am uncertain

Ooh youā€™re the bomb baby
Ooh youā€™re doin that even better than your mom lady
I told you Iā€™m shady

K what

Thatā€™s one hell of a log youā€™ve got going.

Some seriously impressive (and most importantly effective) dedication, plus it looks like youā€™re managing to balance that with everything else to boot - and thatā€™s without taking into account the emotional shitfight youā€™ve been dealing with. Impressive.

I squat in socks. Cheaper then squat shoes and I think better for balance.

335

CSB wants youuuuuu!!!1

Search your feelings, you know it to be trueā€¦

On to shoesā€¦ The best workout shoes Iā€™ve found, that I use to squat, deadlift and overhead press, are mesh top water shoes. Flat soles and super light, like 8-12 bucks a pair at Wal-mart or K-mart or wherever you want to buy your cheap shoes, in the same area as flip-flops.

Chucks or wrestling shoes. I prefer Chucks because I find it easier to push out against the sides.

337

well thank ya!! And thanks for all the advice you always provide in the PL section, much appreciated !

ok so I told myself if I go a week without berating myself over a workout I was allowed to re buy the knee sleeves that I purchased a few weeks ago that turned out to be too small , Lol.

my AMRAP tester set wasnā€™t as I had planned because with low bar its harder to do a ton of reps because wrists start to fall asleep :confused: so I think I made it to about 16 reps and then turned it into a rest pause set

Thatā€™s looking good, and depth would be acceptable in any fed. Chucks/flats all the way. Iā€™d hazard a guess that 220 lbs is on the horizon.

I would suggest you consider adding as assistance if you havenā€™t already:

  • pause squats
  • GHR if you have access to one, otherwise back raises
  • good mornings

All those will help you fight the load pulling you forward as you go past parallel on heavier squats.

You may also find box squats from an inch or so below parallel helpful - they will especially help you get a feel for moving the weight by driving your knees out which Iā€™ve found massively useful.

340

Oh man, 220!!! I am just itching to reach 185, Lol.

Thanks for the tips! :smiley:
