Beyond 531, Cycle 2-2020, Week 3: Squats; Hex Bar Dead PR

Squats (plug in weight: 310)
230/5, 265/3, 295/7 (7RM)

Hex Bar Deadlift
335/1, 385/1, 425/1, 480/1 (PR), 500/1 (PR)

Squats (back off sets)
230/5, 230/5, 230/5

* I felt like having a little fun today with the hex bar, based on how working with it recently has felt. I had a feeling that I would be good for 500, so I decided to give it a shot. It was the first time in my life that I've ever picked up 500 pounds! I know that I could have done more than that, too, if I started off the session with a true PR in mind. That being said, I am not really "training" this exercise for PRs anymore, so I just wanted to hit the magic number of 500 for fun.
