Stephen did 6x1 at 485 (off a competition max of 525). On the singles he is treating it just like in a meet--perfect set up, good depth. Then after his 6 sets another good way of increasing the intensity is to do pause squats. He went down to 370 for a set of 6. Pause squats are great for maintaining posture in the hole. In the bottom position he is not getting lose--he keeps tension.
