460x1@8
415x6 @9.5 these top sets at higher reps are all usually rep PRs for overload
415x3x4sets from
Dropped a rep on downsets And added a set,

Despite only doing comp squat once every two weeks right now I feel I am making progress with the lift. All the other lower body work has to have some carry over.
(Front squat, pause squat, split squat and all the different pulls)

Very nice set of 505 x 4 on deadlift. It looked like you even had another rep in you based on speed.

[Bryan Dobson]

Thanks! setting rep prs@9 has been my target but I might go ahead and pull it for five in a couple of weeks. 495-505 for 5 is coming.
