Am I correct, you were lifting with a SS coach but then had to leave? If so, what did the SS coach say about your recurring back problems? Were they due to technique problems?

[watson]

Yes. While training with the SS coach, I corrected multiple issues I had with my form

- Bar position on the back
- feet width
- Keeping knees out more
- Initiating hips and knees together
- bending over more.

I plan on going back every 2 months or so, to keep my form in check.
