    Thanks for the input man. So take out the heavy squats on friday and put them after deadlifts of wednesday? Or do light squats on friday, or all 3 days? Any more help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Assuming the C/P deadlift routine you refer to consists of heavy deadlifting (which i'm sure it does), with the aim of increasing your 1RM max, then I would not include a heavy squat day at all.. personally. Depends on what kind of percentages/weights/volume you'll be using and your recovery ability.

    I know I'd highly risk overtraining my lower back, especially, if that were me.

    If your deadlift goes up, i'm sure your squat will improve anyway with a 285 number anyway. Just concentrate on also strengthening the secondary muscles too - lower back, abs, hamstrings and glutes.

    Ok, ill leave out heavy squats for the duration of the c/p routine. It includes heavy work and speed work. As far a bench press routine, what do you guys recommend? Thanks for the help.
