Special Saturday Squats!

So I don't usually squat on Saturdays, but this weekend I went out to Gold's Gym in Marlboro to lift with my friend Mike. We've known each other since high school, but haven't seen each other in about 5 years! So it was really fun to see him AND get a chance to lift with him! (I wasn't into lifting when we met in high school!) This was also good for me  because I was able to get under heavy weight with a spotter I could trust. Although I didn't PR, I still hit numbers that I haven't hit since October. Getting back under heavy weight was something I've been a little scared to do, but now that I've done it I'm feeling much better about it!

I'm going to be taking this week off squatting. I've been working legs a lot recently, and I need to focus on upper body more and get back into benching. Plus I need to give my knee a rest, its been hurting a lot lately (although I'm sure 6 inch heels Saturday night didn't help...)

I know exactly why I missed this. And I know I can do this weight. As I went down and started coming up, I thought to myself, "shit I didn't hit depth". What I SHOULD have been thinking about is pushing through that sticking point to stand up. This was a mental miss and that bothers me SO much. And I obviously hit depth...I actually put that pretty low!
