Warm-up training for tomorrow:                                    3:00pm  203 Lbs

Squats:50 x 8, 140 x 5, 230 x 3, 280 x 1, 330 x 1

Deadlift:225 x 1, 315 x 1, 415 x 1

Abs 2 sets

I like to do this kind of warm up training because for me, 3 days without squatting is too long;the balance during the lift becomes bad,the bar feels heavier and the joints becomes stiffs.

Try to show to a one year old baby how to walk;If you do it almost every day,in one month he will be almost an expert.If you show him once a week and put him in his bed for the rest of the week  he will have trouble walking even at 18 years old.Same with the squats.

Another explanation:The nervous system adapt itself 24 hours a day to become efficient against the last stress that you had;it becomes his new priority,so if you squat sunday,but during the week you:walk 2 hours behind your lawn mower,get stressed at work or in traffic ,argument with your girlfriend ,do a cardio workout etc..the brain and nervous system try to be good to face all those stress one after the other(I'm not talking about just distractions,I talk about real physical organisation of your brain connections) so after all that ,for your brain to be good at the squat,at the end of the week is only the priority number 56.Results:before the workout begins,you have no idea how the weight will feel on you,it's a surprise every week,it depends of everything that happened in the week.When I squat the day before the workout or even sometimes the morning before the workout,Its like a reset button:squat and deadlift=priority number 1;all the rest=I don't f%$/"/in' care about it...
