Conventional PRs >545 from 2.5" deficit >565 from floor
So, the plan is to do the following 3x per week 135x10 225x10 315x10 365x10 405xAMRAP
Once I hit 405x10+ progress up to 425 until I hit 10+, 440, 455, 470, 485, and finally 500x10. Once I hit 500x10 I'll retest my max single.
All of these sets will be done beltless and strapless.
Long term goal is 635x1 as a 181 lifter for that 3.5xBW ratio.
Day 4 will consist of back and bicep work.
I'll also be squatting 3x a week moderate volume, moderate to high intensity.
Deloading every 4th week to a max set of 70% current 10rep max.

Are you feeling pain with both squats and DLs? DLs should be relatively easy on your knees, unless you have a legit injury.
As for squats, lowbar while sitting back is probably the easiest variation for the knees, because of the reduced knee travel. Box squats are a good alternative. In case knee pain doesn't settle down, you can sub for Split squats. The vertical shin angle makes it very easy on the knees.
If you're feeling pain it's always important to check with a doctor. You don't want issues that could easily be resolved and treated to get worse.
Ahegao!
There are many things that could be causing lower back discomfort. When you're home, stretch your hamstrings, glutes, and quadratum lumborum. And don't skip your warmup sets.
