i asked my gf to crack my back but somehow my ribs carcked instead. i was still able to get in 3 workouts after but yesterday when i bent down to grab an empty bar i felt something pop and give out. it feels as if theres a bubble around the posterior floating ribs.
im hoping its nothing serious, i really want to finish the program, everything was going good as plan till this.
I'm on the strong lift program, so I'm doing Squats 3x a week, think I will make the switch to the Layton Norton Program this week
Because I'm now squatting 315 lbs, I'm not able to go as low and push out as many reps as I can with 285 lbs. The same was said when I was pushing 285lbs
thoughts on sacrificing depth when pushing heavier weights?

Depends. If you're not breaking parallel at minimum then might as well drop the weight and go lower. Sacrificing proper form for higher weight is just making it an ego lift Posted via RS Mobile
Aim to hit parallel engage the glutes more; otherwise, you'll become more quad dominant with non-parallel squats leading to imbalances between the quad and hamstrings.
Nothing magical happens when you get to 315. Not hitting parallel is a bad idea at 285 and it's still a bad idea at 315. Train the same way you've always trained. Posted via RS Mobile

Shit that sucks man. Don't worry too much though, you've basically done 99% of the program, i'm sure your squat has greatly improved. Just deload and recover and get ready for the next program, whatever that may be! Posted via RS Mobile

Fcukedd, aim higher than me. You young guys aren't even close to your prime years yet but are already damn strong. I can't even imagine how strong you guys will get when you're my age.
