Flimsy Bar Squats

I decided to try out the new Texas Powerbar that I got Sarah for her birthday.  It's got nice sharp knurling but it's proven to be less than ideal for heavy squats.  I could be a bit spoiled by the York black oxide training bar that we normally squat with, its super stiff.

Box Jumps- 2 sets of 3 @ 39"

Squat-135X10, 225X8, 315X3, 405X1, 495X1,belt on now, 545X1, 570X1 PR, 405X16 (I thought I had 17 so I stopped but watching the video proved otherwise) 
All squats felt decent, I used a texas power bar and it will be the last time I squat with that bar. Super flimsy, caused alot of shaking and swinging on the decent, even after I tried to be very conservative with my movements.








GHR-3 sets of 12
Ab wheel-2 set of 15, 1 set +35lbs on back
