Yesterday was my last heavy squat/deadlift session of my meet cycle.  I will be competing in about 21 days.  I took a an opener in a suit yesterday and took my 2nd attempt with reverse monster bands.  I got some videos of the squats and pulls.  This is how the day went:

Squats

Warm up: bar x5, 135x5x2, 185×3
Briefs : 250×1, 340×1, 390 x1, 430 x1, 480×1
Suit Straps Down: 505×1
Straps Up: 535×1, 585×1
Rev Band: 635×1

My opener will be a little bit lighter in this meet than last to reserve myself for my 2nd and 3rd attempt.  Overall I felt good yesterday and am looking forward to the meet.

Deadlifts:

135x2x2, 225×1, 315×1, 365×1, 405×1, 455×1, 495×1, 545×1
Most of these are done with my suit on which is not too ganster just to get a feel for the suit.  This is usually my strongest lift so I am happy with this.

After wards I performed some back raises for reps and some standing ab work for reps.

Here a video of my last couple squats and deadlifts:
