Looking for some advice again.

After a reset Squats were flying up and to day i got 335lbs on squats i got 5,5,4....s due a reset however i could of got that 5th rep but i knew my squats were high so called it as i wasn't feeling it.

I filmed all my sets and for sure now the weight feels substantially heavy on my back Im not hitting depth (but it feels like it) ROM is not a problem as bodyweight and 135-225 i can get low its just when the weights get heavier i feel like Im getting low but looking back I'm not.

Would it be a good idea to reset but add a box to squat to? not a box squat but a "target" or should i reset 20% and change the movement to a pause squat?

Thanks
Excellet post, clears up a lot of questions from the book.

After a bout of illness and a piriformis injury i had to take a break from lifting (i was in the middle of a peaking cycle) I got a bit out of shape and did krypteria 5/3/1 but with a focus on conditioning (i was fairly unfit after a lay off) anyway to get back into strength I started the year on grey skull to regain the strength I've lost because its simple and Alex bromley said he was doing grey skull when he was squatting 600lbs

anyhow My lift have been going up and my recent numbers are squat 315 for 7, bench 201 x 8, deadlift 330 x 5

I weigh 80kg, sleep well and eat around 3000 cals a day getting 200-230g protein

My Question is - is there a good time to take a deload week (not a reset) where we can test our 1rm? I'm starting to feel a bit beaten up after workouts and feel a deaload may help even though I've not hit a plateau yet

secondly I'm doing the homework in the form of ladder chins and pushups (6 sets of 20 push ups and 4 ladders of 7) daily but I'm getting some elbow pain and shoulder clicking should i back off for a bit?

My goal and mainly strength and a conditioning with ascetics as a bi product.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
