Squat Training 1/19/06
On the 545 I came flying out of the hole only to miss just over halfway up. And it wasn't like I just stopped, I was coming up and then just started coming back down. It caught my spotter and I by suprise b/c it was coming up so fast! I weighed in at 244. I had already intended to do front squats instead of pause squats to save my back, as well as leg curls for good mornings. But now I feel I need the front squats more than anything b/c my quads are so weak!

You sure it wasn't just a technique flaw or you losing focus somewhere, Mike? I'm sure you're right about the quad work to help you lock out the squat. It's just rare that I hear of anyone missing a squat from the top when the speed from the bottom was quick.

You may be right. I was training in a different gym and in the morning the day after I was suppose to work out(workout partner didn't show the night before). But I hate to make excuses. Focus wasn't 100% for sure.
