Spot Check: 380-lb No No No Olympic Squat, 485-lb Conventional Beltless Deadlift @ 187 lbs

04.06.2017
My left adductor got a little strained yesterday during the leg press. And I'm feeling just plain tired today.

But my Olympic no no on squat (high bar, way below parallel, no belt, no sleeves, no wraps) and my conventional beltless deadlift are each within 25 lbs of my best ever successful attempts with these specific versions of the movements.

Best ever no no no Olympic Squat = 405
Current no no no Olympic Squat = 380

Best ever beltless conventional deadlift = 500 x 2 yields 510
Current beltless conventional deadlift = 485

405 no no no Olympic Squat 11.23.2016

380 no no no Olympic Squat 04..06.2017

500 x 2 beltless Deadlift 10.30.2016
485 beltless Deadlift 04.01.2017


Obviously, the current squat max with 380 was a lot slower and more grinding than the smooth, quick single with 405 in the fall. So I'm more than 25 pounds away if I'm being really honest. But I'm regaining strength so quickly right now that I will be at 395 in just a couple more days.
