Guessing your form is good. Are you trying to hit 275 at the end of that squat cycle? Try doing your heaviest first if not, just make sure you load your system up properly beforehand. May also be doing to much and breaking the tissue down to far. Could need longer rest/deload periods(majority of time I find this to be peoples issue), or floss out some matted down tissue in your legs sometimes those fiibers get all matted together.

I don't know if I agree with this except the diet and rest part. You aren't going to get strong/grow if you just show up and max out and then call it a day. You also have a great risk for injury by starting at your max first. I would strongly advise against that. It seems counter intuitive to do a work up because you feel you're using more energy to get there, but that's not the way it works. Your body needs to prepare for its max. And you aren't going to be lifting shit if you injure yourself. You will be drinking kratom smoothies with dino.
One thing I can't stress enough is resting between sets. If you need to take a 3-5 min break while maxing that's ok. That's only going to benefit your next lift. I also have either protein powder in water or just honey in water for some extra energy during lifts.
Hope this helps.
Kaizersoze, are you working other parts of your legs as well? And what exercises?
