Guys, when I try to break squat PR it's always the OMG-I-wanna-puke-NOW-NOW-NOW-my-heartrate-is-going-crazy-OMG-I-is-white-faced situation that pulled me behind. Unlike DL or bench I've never hit any plateau caused by lack of strength yet.

Am I alone in this or wot? I can has wrong breathing techniques?

Do u see 'stars' as well? lol..

When I was reaching my maxes on Rippetoe.. usual its damn gila.. gotta tend to rest longer as heart rate is sky high.. I used to keep my breath when i go down and up those days. Blood pressure will definitely shoot up as well.

I personally find holding my breath when going down and exhale half way up.

However with max-ot.. I hardly do to failure though.. coz if i were to do it to positive failure 4-6rep.. I bet I can't finish rest of my other work out. Plus the rest gap is not very long.
