I finished up SS at 3x5x265, but looking back my form was pretty good morning-y and my lower back was a real weak point. I started TM after having been off for a while due to the above mentioned family stuff, and reset a bit as per the program.
As per BPA's advice after I posted my first vids, I reset my volume sets due to the change in stance, and also to work on upper and lower back tightness. I've also been doing extra hip mobility stuff in order to get my knees shoved out to the point they need to be given my new stance. Given how many stops and starts I've had with squatting, I want to progress slowly enough that I can get to some reasonable volume set weight (say 5x5x275) without having to reset much, if at all. I know this will probably slow me down, but I'm so much of an upper body bro at heart that I'm not really concerned with rapid squat progression. I just want to be able to build up the weak parts of the lift so when I get to where I want to be, I'm actually there, as opposed to kind of there with bad form.
