675 lb squat!

The year is wrapping-up, and I wanted to assess how my squat is doing.  I hadn't lifted in nearly a week as I'd gotten dizzy late last week due to lack of sleep and getting dehydrated.  Today was my first day back, but with tomorrow being New Year's eve, I thought I'd hit it hard.  Brian joined me, so with a spot, I knew I could go for it.  This is a banded-squat.  At the bottom, it applies somewhere between 50-100 lbs of assistance to come off the bottom, but at the top, isn't doing anything.  It feels somewhere in the middle of a normal, full-range squat, and a top-end squat.  If I had to estimate, it would be about 90% of actual max squat.

So with that background, here is a video of my top sets for singles, followed by the workout:
