Interesting. You're likely letting your knees too far forward as you go down. They should never pass a line drawn up from your toes. Instead, you should be sticking your a$$ out more. Can be a tough form to learn, especially without a good coach, and I don't know the best way to explain it other than to tell you to read Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe and Lon Kilgore. They explain it far better than I ever could, and in far more detail. I am not using my copy currently, so if you want to send me your addy, I can send it off to you.

Heavy chest/arms for me this morning, flat bench(205x5x3), incline bench(185x5x3), bar curls and cable bar pulldowns.
