It's nice you decided to go with partials and stick with that... now you're starting to see the results and you're getting more beast by the minute
Current PR status:

All time squat: 165 kg/Old age squat: 130 kg
All time deadlift: 184 kg/Old age deadlift: 140 kg
All time bench: 85 kg/Old age bench: 70kgx5reps
All time hip thrust (same as old age hip thrust): 160kgx5reps

^ i was expecting improvements in my SVJ using partials by training my RFD at the jumping angle.. im just surprised that for some reason, the full squat got better too.. i dont think it will apply to everybody, specially those who haven't done a lot of full squats to begin with.

now that i have the partial depth pretty much covered, il add it some volume of barbel jump squats as deloads.

#1 Jump Squats
- non-rhythmic, hold the landing form for a sec and stabilize ~ 1/2 depth
55 10x2
95 8x2
135 6x2
185 4x2
225 2x2 4x1

Jumps
- SVJ x6

* i was only planning to go up to 135 but it felt so light, did 185 and same thing.. its not cutting it. still got a decent jump using the 225s. did not do too many and burn myself.
* im focusing on maintaining depth and quick transitions.. a carryover from the partial squats and my form and depth was good even for a first workout.
* added a pause after the landing to really feel the stretch on the muscles on the force absorption. feels like my legs what to recoil back the more i pause it.
* will do more jump squats tomorrow if the bar feels heavy for a full squat + partial workout. more partial 365 x4-6 if i feel strong.

i will aim to get quick partials on 405, but before i add more to 405, il make sure i can full squat it at least x5. its full squat ramping to 455 i guess.

#9 Heavy Partial Squats + Mini Bands
- 365 4x2

* the 455x1 was quick on the rebound and on the way up. legs were pushing strong. upperback got beat. was not able to maintain upright form. legs probably good for another 10-15lb max but no way it would work if the upperback is not up for it.
* the 365x4 + minibands were quick with consistent depth. will skip another day and lift on saturday.

* lower back got stiff after the 135 warmup set. still unrecovered from the heavy 455x1. did not do the planned partials for today. i tried to walk out with the 405x1 but unracking / setup feels weak already. did not even bother bending knees. a failure for sure.
* did 2 sets of bent back goodmorning with just bar to get blood flowing good on lowerback. kept the weight in the upper 2/3 of feet to get the lowerback doing all the work. minimized hamstring pull. felt good. i should be a lot stronger tomorrow if my lowerback recovers well.

A 475lb squat will put you at 2.5x bw squat @190lbs bw.
 :'(

I'm sure you'll be able to hit it no doubt within a month or two. Or, if you could just lay off the creatine and lose like 5lbs of water, you can hit 465 for a touch over 2.5x bw instead. Crazy.

im already very skinny when i get to 190-192ish. prefer to be at least 192-194. squat weight will come. i really feel that i have enough legs but not enough core to hold the weight in place. upperbody bends on near max singles.

* looks like a repeat of sundays workout. will skip tmrw and give back more time. it is still not 100%, but not really that weak. i was still able to jumpsquat 225s. the walkout/setup for the 365x1 paused rep was not very solid. did not go heavier.

Hey Kingfish, I was just wondering, do you have some history in regards to the height of your vertical?  I mean, were you ever jumping 25" or anything like that?  I was wondering how long it took you to build your vertical to what it is.
