965.0 kgs @ 102kgs UnEq		if your squats are sticking at bottom position something that helped me was doing paused squats after my sets (sitting in the hole for 3-4 seconds then popping up) lighter weight obviously...

Nice logging though i remember you couldnt move the log at hixxys!!

Not feeling right in the slightest. Everytime i put the bar down between reps on deads my ribs and back felt like theyd been really jarred.

May need to take a week off and/or see physio. Got a pain running right along bottom of my rib cage atthe front and then at each side in my back too. Bloody walking wreck!
