First of all, stop pulling sumo. Forever. And stop low bar squatting. Squat high bar, atg, always.
I also need 72 hours or so to recover from punishing my legs. The solution is one deadlift (pull) day and one leg day a week. One heavy with high intensity, one with higher volume and lower intensity.
To help your body adapt to this, during deadlifts, only ever pull for more than 3 reps if it's less than 70% of your max. If your program tells you to pull 1x5, then make it a clustered singles, five times, with 90 second rests. This also reinforces form.
If youre pulling conventional and squatting high bar atg, like you should, then your body can handle this and the overlap in muscles used will help progress each lift.
For leg day I also add extra volume for instance doing a programmed 3x3 and then a slightly lower weight for 5x5 on top of this.
>3.5x bw deadlift, conventional mixed grip no straps
>3x bw squat, high bar atg
