weak squat, strong deadlift

Just recently tested my squat and deadlift. My deadlift is at 257.5kg and my squat is at 165kg.

I'm now on week 4 of sheiko routine 29, is my squat going to even out with my deadlift? Any additional exercises you would recomend?

I'm 98kg and tall
 
Sounds like a technical problem
Got a video? People will be able to help more with a video
 
My dead is 170, my squat maybe 120, but thats mostly because i'm a wimp :) (failing deadlifts is more comfortable than failing squats)
 
Fuck I need a camera, such a shame that there are personal trainers available at my gym but they know bloody nothing!
 
If you are quite tall chances are you naturally have better levers for deadlift than squat.

What kind of squat are we talking about? E.g big difference between low-bar to parallel vs high bar full depth olympic squats, generally the latter is going to produce significantly lesser numbers.
 
Sheiko #30 is probably your best bet for increasing the squat
400 reps over 50% a month with plenty of reps and heavy weight
 
DEFINATLY need a vid then. So many people fuck it up.

Lever were mentioned..... It's a 165kg squat, as long as your "normal" levers don't mean anything yet......
