    @Clare , thanks for your recommendation, that’s exactly what I started implementing, lowered the weight a bit and I’m focusing on breathing through my stomach and keeping my core tight so I don’t overexaggerate lifting chest up, I hope I’ll get better in it soon, would you recommend any exercises I could do outside of sessions? Smth at home

    @allisontestuhotmail-fr I ditched out safety bar squats in favor of v squat, thanks for the recommendation!

    Now that you’ve said it, I indeed think it could be that I accumulate fatigue with my squatting patterns so it probably translates to pressing and then because of movement during the lift I get injured. Every time I got injured that rep was near failure and I knew I was not stable, I lost drive from my legs and I hinged on one side!

    Do you think that the main reason for injuries in my particular case could be not being symmetrical during a rep? For example, I tend to drive with my left shoulder a bit quicker than with left so my upper back loses tightness.

    I’ll definitely watch my leg drive next time, as I totally disregarded it during presses.
