I've been following Clarence for a long time now. He recently shared a how he squatted at one point.
Summary: 5x5 @ 75-85%, followed by 3 sets of 10 @ 50% ... 5 days a week. For Clarence, he then followed that up with some snatches and some clean and jerks. He talks about how he would try to do the same weight three days in a row, then take a day off, and bump up the weight, and try to do the same higher weight on the next day too.
To be clear he doesn't necessarily recommend this. He talks about how this was so exhausting he couldn't do much else (weightlifting). He also talks about how he basically did this up to 230kg back squat.
At the end he says he does not recommend this program, as getting strong is easy - recovering from injury is hard. It worked when he was 16, but now he thinks there are better ways. He also said he'd only do this for 3-5 weeks at a time before switching back to focus on the snatch/clean and jerk.
