Squatting cues

TheDevastator

When you lift heavy what are you saying to yourself when you lift?

some of mine for high bar squats are:
heels and hips
chest up
strong core
elbows locked
I should be squatting 1000 lbs.

what are some of yours?

I make no form comments. :-/

All mine involve a good bit of cursing the nicest being "you got this *kitten*!"

Most important to me is tighten your core.
