I will have to look into the floss. Right now I just start warmups with no weight and probably do 5 warmup sets of increasing weight before doing a work set.
Cool, sounds like you are on the right path. Yes definitely look into the VooDoo floss.

I got away from Low bar BS as it was bothering my back. I have made adjustments to my squatting regimen over the years. I stick with High bar now and my low back is 100 times better. I also use the “break” at the knee first technique in a more up right alignment which has been very beneficial for me personally. No more back, knee and hip pain.
