Several years ago I had a lower back injury where the ligament attaching the pelvis to the spin was strained/torn. After rehab and returning to my lifting protocol my lower back is in much better shape. The issue I'm experiencing is when I squat over 400 pounds my depth is poor. For example squatting 315 for reps 10-15 I'm able to get very deep, but when I move to lower reps for example 450 for 4-6 reps my depth is piss poor.
Things that have helped are box squats typically I do 315 for the 8-10 rep range and front squats I do 225 very deep for 10-15 reps and 315 for 6-8 reps. In addition I'm performing dead-lifts and straight leg dead-lifts to further strengthen my lower back.
Any advice for a deeper squat when lifting heavier weight.
