Hi again coaches,
You helped me in this thread considering the volume days:
http://startingstrength.com/resource...ad.php?t=39244

I know you agree intensity days are not enough to evaluate technique but I am having major issues(created moment arms at every rep, back goes to hell) while my volume days are quite solid.

I am handling 85% of the intensity day's RM3 weight on volume day, still not feeling it's hard as fuck to be honest on volume days(recovering within 48 hours)
*I used to suck at chins(sets of 4-5) so I started doing them twice a week(the end of intensity day and recovery day) and am now doing sets of 9-10 across(wanna get to 13-15)
*on volume days I am always doing powercleans successfully

In this set my right knee popped after the first rep and I had some slight discomfort/mild pain, this too my attention:
- Are the chins fatiguing my upper back to the point it fucks my squat?
- Am I going too deep here and losing tightness?
- Should I focus on chest up rather than drive my ass?
- Is the weight just too fucking heavy?(already managed 10lbs more, using the old- look in the mirror- shit technique)

* I am lifting 32.5KG more than this RM3 for 5 reps in the deadlift with a straight back.(can take a video if you wanna asses it also)
Here is the SQ:


Really need your advice, should I keep going up in weights?
Am afraid the gap between v-day and I-day would be too small, again v-days are not that hard yet, it just seems I am sucking on RM3's.

Sincerely,
Weak David

Dear WD,

You are letting go just a little and allowing your upper back to round and the bar to roll forward. I have a similar problem when I get fatigued. Overall, these look decent for a heavy set of three. Add more weight. You may find that after a while, you need to go to heavy singles, a la Andy Baker. To help with your squat, don't try and catch quiet as much of a bounce and keep your chest up harder on the ascent.
