    I'm not a conventional puller, I've never been good at the lift, so I perfected my sumo squat. Most I ever hit conventional is 405 though.

    Gotcha!

    On the facepulls are you targeting mostly traps? I'm asking since your elbow are pointing up. Just so I'm sure where I should feel it.

    To me it does hit traps, but you should really focus on hitting the rear delts. The traps will definitely be engaged, but the lift should be focused around hitting the rear delts.

    So on Thanksgiving day I hit a 50# Training PR on Squats. Previous training PR was 380#s

    Here's the vid, let me know if you guys can see it.

    Looks about 3" shy of full depth to me. But up 50# is significant.

    This entire week is Test week, so we will be maxing out all week:

    Yesterday was Deadlift day:

    145*8
    235*6
    325*4
    415*2
    465*1
    505*1
    525*1 (Opener)
    555*1 (second lift, good lift) This matched my last PR 3 wks ago, but this went up a lot easier
    580*fail (got this lift about 4 inches off the ground but could move it any more)
    580*fail
    565*fail (my lower back was shot to sh*t and I was done)

    Overall I think I could have gotten 565-570, but I got a little greedy or over ambitious, however you want to see it. I have vids that I will post up today hopefully, my coach recorded all the vids.

    Today is Bench day and I got in my new Titan Bench belt and the things is SUPER SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait to try it out, hopefully my tight lower back will cooperate with me.

    Not sure what I'm missing here, but to me this is below parallel for sure.

    Maybe we have different understanding of the word "parallel". For your hip joint to be parallel (no higher, no lower) with the knee joint, you would need to drop down more. Maybe I'm out of the loop after 25 years, but that used to be a requirement for the lift to count.

    Re: O_RYAN's BROOTAL STRENGTH LOG

    555 was super clean, so I am actually a little surprised the 580 didn't go up. The 580 looked perfect off the ground. Looked to me like the mid/upper back began to round at the sticking point. 575 would have gone up. Very nice work, bro.
