Bench felt ok today. There were a few reps where my balance was off and the bar started to lean to the right. I had a pinch on my right shoulder for awhile now. I think this caused the imbalance. I need to lay off on the shoulder exercises for a bit and see if it gets better.

I think the heavy weight was finally exposing the flaws in my squat form. I'm starting to see hips shooting up first and upper body leaning forward a lot at 255lb. My knees were even caving in a little. I think the main problem was caused by my knees going over my toes too much. And this pushed my body forward at the bottom of the squat. I tried widen my stance but my hips were not strong enough to hold the weight at the bottom position. This threw me off the balance even more and it made it worse… I had to readjust my stance midway through the set. I might try to mix in some wider stances on lighter weights to strengthen my hip abductors / adductors. Doing more pause squats and front squats would probably help too.

As for deadlift, I was really trying to tighten my lats before I pull. This feels a bit unnatural and I definitely didn't feel as strong compared to when my arms were just relaxed. I need to keep playing around to see if I can either get used to it or find a better position. I've also noticed that if I pulled the bar up and let it touch my shins, I could actually generate more force off the ground. Combined with pushing the hips through and squeezing the glutes, it definitely made the lift a lot smoother. I was still seeing some lower back rounding and hips shooting up issues. Gotta keep working on it...
