I had some issue getting into the correct stance tonight. My left leg felt like it wasn't anchored, like it wasn't solid into the floor. I think maybe it's because of the adjustments that the chiropractor has been making. It may take some getting used to, being back in the alignment that I should be in. I also noticed that my right leg was definitely feeling the weight more than the left. I'm taking that all as a good sign that things are not only being brought back where they should be, but the ligaments are keeping them there!
All that unilateral work I had to write down after I got home, so the order of the exercises isn't correct, but you get the idea.
Even with all the debate that we have in the gym over how much the safety squat bar weighs (I say 65lb, Justin only counts it as 45lb ) I still got 10lbs more than last time. I'm going with 255lb on high box squats!!!!
I said to Justin that someday I'd be squaring that weight for real. He looked at me and said "this is for real." I'm very hard on myself and I tend to always feel like I'm cheating or taking the easy way. I have to remind myself that while I can't back squat 255lb, I can sit with it on my back and get back up again. And you know what, that's pretty damn good.
