I was tired. 285 is starting to feel good on the belt squat i can feel the correct muscles firing.hopefully iām building up all the under used muscles. my abductors are feeling it. I wonder how much this will translate to my regular squat.
at 40 you have to pick what you use up your lower back for right now its Olympic lifts.

I felt tired second workout in a row and I missed a lift.i think the fatigue is hitting again. I am going to deload and keep the weights the same and see if I can make 3 weeks before i make an adjustment.
