Sunday's 80% squat and deadlift training

Today's training looked like this:

Free Squat
55 x 5 reps x 3 sets
145 x 3
235 x 1
325 x 1 (added single ply suit and belt straps up)
415 x 1
505 x 1 (straps up)
565 x 1 (knee wraps
615 x 1 x 2 sets

Reverse Band Free Squat (doubled monster mini bands)
665 x 1
700 x 1

Deadlift
135 x 3 reps x 2 sets
225 x 1
315 x 1
415 x 1
475 x 1
525 x 1 x 2 sets

GHR's (Glute Ham Raises)
4 sets x 8 reps

Today's plan was to take an 80% suit free squat and to deadlift up to around an approximate opener.  I took my opener for November twice today, which will be 615.  I used a semi-tight knee wrap today starting at 565 and it took some getting used to.  I have always been accustomed to very light knee wraps.  The first set was an adjustment, but it got better as the weight went up.  Still awhile out from the meet, but the target is 615 for the first squat, 665 for the second, and 700 for the third.

As for the deadlift I pulled up to just under an estimated opener for November.  I pulled the singles of 525 twice with relative ease each time.  I closed up with some Glute Ham Raise work, as I feel they have been really helping my hip involvement with the squat and bench.

Plan for this week:
Monday: Deload Bench session with assistance work
Wednesday: Posterior Chain Assistance
Thursday: Bench Assistance
Saturday: Upper Body Assistance
