Hello,
Doing the program. My squat is at 225 (102,5 kg). The last few workouts I have had trouble with the 4th and 5th reps in each set for the squat. I get dizzy and a somewhat loss of vision, everything is fine once I rack the bar and have a deep breath. Numbers are going up on all lifts, I rest 8 minuter between squat sets and the weight is defenitly managable. Its not the strength thats is lacking.
I have tried a couple of medium sized breaths between reps (standing with the bar on the shoulders) before applying valsalva but this exhausts me a bit to much so my technique gets poor. I have tried increasing the internal preassure ”upwards” (toward the glottis and head, more of a mental que) but no effect.
Is this common and are there any recommendations available? Is it some sort of ”oxygen debt”, loss of blood preassure? I am training on my own in my garage so this has become a safety issue since I have no spotters.
