Today's program was to work up to 95-100% of the best squat this training cycle then take two more jumps with reverse bands after that. Here is how that broke down...

squat - wore Metal Ace briefs and Metal Ace squat suit

worked up like a warm up in a meet

worked up to 850 for a single

added reverse light bands - bands were set so there was zero tension at the top

920 for a single

1,000 for a single

 

dimel deadlifts

135 for 2 sets of 20

 

I was super excited to take the 1000 pound squat today. I completely understand it was a true 1000 pound squat but I did pick up 1000 out of the rack and kept my head about me during the squat.
