What changes or additions or similar cause power jumps in your training?
I was stalling very hard on deadlifts. I kept having form failure and my lower back started to round. It was like this for more than a month. One day I had a terrible day before my workout and felt depressed as shit. Again my deadlifts failed but I was upset enough that I refused to have my day made worse by failing my set and pushed through 3 additional reps with shit form.
However when I reviewed myself on video I saw that even though it felt like my form broke down it was actually fine. I don't know why it felt like my lower back was rounding when it looked perfectly fine. It might be a bit dumb but since then I push through even if my form feels imperfect, I'll correct it after reviewing video of it. After that deadlifts became my best lift.
What about you guys. What cause you to experience 'power jumps'?

Learning how to lock my spine into neutral change everything for me in the squat and deadlift.
I would always lose so much power at the bottom of the squat and had to grind ym way up. When i learned this i could power through it, with ease and squat a lot more.
It also helped me tremendously in the deadlift. As my back would start rounding all the time. even with 80% of my max. Now it doesnt.
For upper body lifts the biggest thing have been learning to keep my shoulders in position. I slightly elevate them and keep them there. That way i dont get any pain or discomfort in any lifts, which i used to get before.
I used to have back pain, shoulder pain and clavicle issues. Now im painfree, proressing faster than ever and im stronger than ever.

You wouldn't be able to provide some more details on that whole 'locking your spine into neutral' thing?
