I think I may have strained something in my lower back, right side last week, so I'll just do high bar squats today.

Also, I'm going to stop doing paused squats for my work sets and only do them during warm ups.

  • Last set I widened my grip (ring fingers on the rings instead of index fingers). I think I have a little more control with a wider grip, especially when I'm fatigued and I start flaring my elbows out. There's a little more wiggle room for elbow flare with a wider grip for the RGBP compared to a narrower grip.
