Today was a quick workout since I went to a gym location closer to work. I met a woman who competes in powerlifting. She was able to do really deep ATG squats with some decent weight which was really cool to see in person.We chatted about form for a min. or two and she also recommended that I use a closer stance on my dead lifts, after watching me only get 3 reps out at 335.

The form tips I got on these a couple of weeks ago seem to be working like a charm. On the top set I'm still able to get the bar up and get under it without having to split my legs and lose form.

I'm planning to stick with the weights from week 3 of squats until
I get my form fixed. I remember that back when I wasn't chasing the 1RM I used
to squat with my legs closer together. Somewhere along the way I started using a
slightly wider stance in order to squat the heavier weights.  So now I'm back to using
a stance thats just slightly wider than shoulder width apart and that seems to be helping.
I'm still not used to it so I keep loosing my balance and not getting all my
reps in on the top set.
