Another lifter got video of my lifts, I will post up all 9 lifts once I get a copy of the dvd next week.
2nd squat - All my weight was on my toes when I unracked(thats why it was hard to unrack), and I couldn't get the weight on my heels so I just started the squat on my toes, you can see the point in the middle of the squat where I regain my balance before I lockout.
3rd squat - Felt pretty good, but felt like I could have done it a bit better, maybe a slight missgroove.
What gave my raw squat a big boost at the start of the year was doing the smolov base mesocycle for 3 weeks, that got me to 190kg pretty fast. But since you have a hip injury, there's no way I'd want to be smashing that much volume.
I'd probably not focus on singles actually, 5's and 6's seem to be good, I do them most of the time, and cycle down to lower reps before a comp. Maybe something like 5/3/1 or your own creation of a low volume(for the hip) periodised cycle. I never train singles actually, singles = PR setting for me. I only go down to doubles, but they are light and I don't think that's what really gets me stronger, probably all the weeks of 6's.

I feel so naughty asking a smaller guy for advice.
All jokes aside, thanks. Sticking with doubles and singles is probably what has caused my squat to stall.
There was also a photographer at the comp, took like 60gbs or so of photos lol, 116 photos of me, 637mb, I also totalled 637.5kgs lol. Anyway I posted 19 of them to facebook:

did you have to get certified? This is what i want to do.
Everybody in the world except this guy need cert 3/4 in fitness before they will even see me, it costs $2000.
This guy knows his shit, and knows that the industry certifications are rubbish. I didn't even give him my resume, just a few emails back and forth, and then a chat in person and I got the job. I found it advertised on a forum lol, I really got lucky here!
