685 felt surprisingly good. I used some of the same cues Marshall and I worked on to maintain upper back tightness in my squat and they worked! I worked really hard to adjust my anterior pelvic tilt but I took that concept a little bit too far. By training to stay perfectly neutral, I was losing leverage. So I went back to 'reaching' a bit and then arching through my mid back only to maintain tightness. And it felt great. My squat was feeling 'natural' again.
I went to pause squats but was feeling some pulling in my left glute/ham tie in so I shut it down there.
The backwards sled drags have my quads looking massive, for me at least. All good things!
