Thanks @Steve Freides .My pleasure, Chase.
There's lots of great stuff for sale if you want to buy something. Events to attend, really good kettlebells, books. Most important, though, is tell your like-minded friends - StrongFirst isn't going to be for everyone, but we need to be better known, even if everyone who knows what we're about won't be interested.
There are two ways to perform this. One, which you're doing, is to squat at the bottom. For most people, this ceases to be an option once the weight becomes heavier. My choice is to try to perform it as an extended ROM deadlift, so my hips aren't as low as yours at the beginning.
There's a picture of Pavel doing this with 315 lbs, I think, somewhere - anyone have a reference or link?
-S-
I’ll continue to play around with this a bit. Maybe raise the bar off the floor to shorten the ROM 2-4 inches & see where that takes me.
I feel like I’ll be keeping this one in the 135-185 range.
I believe this is it - Very impressive.
