Wanted to post up a video from today as title states 838lbs x 5. I am weighing in at 155lbs and this set is after 5 sets of squats and 2 sets on leg press.
Any comments welcome.

i'd rather loose some of the weight op and get more reps with better form. Just my 2 cents. Nice work op.

There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there. - Patrick Bateman

Thanks guys. I do go deeper on 8 and 10 total plates. For the weight I thought I went deep enough on this set but guess not. I have left knee issues but I doubt theses are half the distance I could go. My knees where almost to my chest and to much lower would make my butt come up.

I notice that when I decrease the angle of the seat I get more hamstring activation but can't quite go as deep. When the angle of the seat is wide I feel more quad activation. This is due to the former putting the hip in flexion and causing a "pre-tension" on the hamstring (similar to the difference in effect of bicep vs brachialis in chinup vs pull up). It looks like you were using more hamstring to me in that video which is obviously great if you are training hamstings! Maybe play around with the angle of the chair and foot position (higher foot position enhances hamstring activation due to decreasing angle of the hip joint) and see if you feel anything different!
