ME Squats and Deads 7/3

Max effort squats and deads...power was still out at the gym I usually train at so I had to go to another gym. I was able to make the best of it and set a new 12" box squat pr!

warm up, gpp
bar x 10
135x8
135x5
225x5
added 12" box
275x1
315x1
365x1
390x1
weights were feeling good and i was pretty quick so i decided to go for a pr
415x1 (pr) this is the second week in a row with a pr, there was a slight grind on this rep but it still came up smooth so i was happy.

After working up to a max i did some back of sets
6x3@355

Next up was deadlifts
165x5
265x3
365x2
430x1
485x1
my form wasn't feeling the way i wanted it to so i stopped at 485. i've noticed my set up getting sloppy and my hand placement on the bar needs to be adjusted. im gripping the bar to close and its causing my hands/arms to rub against my thighs and slow down my lockout when bringing my hips through.

5x3@430...feel great pulling from the floor, just need to work on my lockout.

leg curl 3x10@80
hypers 3x10
neutral grip pull ups 3x5@bw
