This is my 3rd week on Texas Method. After seeing excruciatingly slow squat progress for the entire 9 months I was on SS, Texas Method seems to be a whole new ballgame. My squat is up 25lb in 2 weeks.
6'5" 208lbs and have been lifting for about 17 months but spent the first half of 2015 cutting.
The squat is sort of a bastardized hybrid squat, after lots of experimentation it is what works best for me. I carry the bar on top of my traps but use a wide, knees-out low bar leg position.

On the deadlift I accidentally added 10 more pounds than I meant to but the 10lb plates were on the inside and I didn't feel like taking all the weight off so I went for a 2RM. I drop the bar like a savage because I didn't want to risk hurting my back on the descent (I sometimes forget to stay tight on the way down) with this untested weight. I had no idea it looked so horrific so I'll deload and control the bar better next time.
