Yeah I’m definitely one of the weakest people in here. Sad part is that those last few sets of Squats had me sweating like crazy.

Home from a work conference out of town. 3rd day of a deload week, light overall body day.
High bar squats up to 295x2 in giant sets with ghr and reverse hyper. Maybe 3-4 work sets. 2 rounds of bench, arm over arm rope pull and crucifix hold. 2 more rounds of weighted dips, rope pulls and JM presses.
Finished with 2 rep sets of trap bar deads up to 440, supersetted with front loaded plate carries (two 45 lb plates) and sandbag sumo deads.
Back to real work next week.

I can do 145x7 for OHP
but 390x8 squats?
I usually work with 285 5x5. Do people's strength vary that much or am I just not trying to push legs hard enough?

Depends on the squat too. High bar, close stance is much more ROM than a low bar squat.
But most likely you ain't trying as hard as you can.

I have naturally big and strong legs. It’s kind of a family thing. It gives me a solid base, but I do squats A LOT. And deadlifts, too. I do a high bar with a bit of an wide base. I need the wide base becasue I have big hips and need to able to squat low.

I’d like to be able to squat heavy. I’ve been working on my flexibility a little more the last few weeks.
My hips usually are in pain when I get parallel or lower.

That’s not good. I wonder why that is.

Woah, I can’t believe I just found this thread. I wish I would’ve found this sooner. Well, I’m late to the party but here we go. 23 years old, 5’9, & will be competing at 220 in my first power comp in August through the USPA. Shooting for a 1600 total, 600 dead/squat & 400 bench. Personal PR’s are a 605 squat, 425 bench, & 585 deadlift. I had shoulder/bicep surgery in January so that’s put me behind schedule. Does anybody have any tips or advice on deads? I have t-Rex arms & a short torso. I have to pull sumo for that reason. Deads are my worst lift & I need all the help I can get

What's your program? Strange to see squat higher than deadlift. Impressive numbers!
Posted on 6/24/18 at 11:31 am to Hu_Flung_Pu
I know dude, it’s weird. I normally try to do what Larry Wheels does. That’s my go to guy as far as programs go. My program really is all over the place. One day heavy, one day volume, & a little of both another.

Good day yesterday. Did 3 sets of 100 lb dumbbells. 16-12-10. Best I've done in years.

Larry is strong but he does vanity lifts alot. That ain't his core program.
Nobody programs a set of 20 into a powerlifting program. It would wreck an entire week of lifting legs.
Anyways, try box squats with a fairly wide stance to help the sumo deadlift.

So, this comes with a caveat that I'm pulling 515ish at 190, so maybe you should be giving me advice.
First piece of advice is always work to nail down your form. Nothing adds weight faster than improving form.
Second is see if you have a limiting factor. From your squat number, I doubt you have a core, quad or glute limiting factor. That leaves grip, lats and hamstrings. Test them and see if one or two lag. If they do, improve it.
Finally, see if you have an exercise that gives high carryover. For me, doing SLDL/RDL off the floor has very high carryover to deads. If you can find one that works well for you, program it as a consistent accessory.
Just my thoughts.
