Squatting more today, as I'm standing in closer to the machine, rather than leaning 'back' into the bar. This allows me to drive more 'up' and 'into' the weight, but it seems to isolate the quad a lot less, and, more importantly, seems to put a lot my pressure on my lower back. I'm concerned about the L4/L5, and am thinking I will try to go back to lower weight, higher rep ranges, and a stance that is further away from the machine.
I really, really, really don't want to have the kind of back problems I had before.
