    How much do you squat?

    This is my favorite exercise and i just wanted to know how everyone is on it. I want to see how compare to others my age.

    im 17 and i got 550 for one rep is my best. I come up when parallel, when the coach says up.

    sorry to dispute the validity of this claim but i just find it hard to believe that a 17 yr old kid is putting up numbers like that. what are your stats, how tall, weigh, etc?

    I am 6,1 235lbs. This is my favorite exercise and i love working legs like crazy. I work them with much intensity and even puked a couple of times from the workouts. My lower body exercise numbers are good such as squat deadlift, leg press, ect but my upper body needs some help so that is what im working hard on.

    legs-28.5
    calfs-17.5
    arms.17.25
    foreams-14
    chest-47
    waist-35

    well im dedicated as hell. I have been lifting since 13 and seriously since about 14 1/2. I do lots of research and different routines so my legs never get use to one thing. When most of my friends are out partying i am working out or running. If i dont finish what i want to finish that day, i will stay home to finish it and i make sure i dont miss meals at least 5-8 a day. I just want to be all-ohio in football and that has always been my dream to make it far, so i just work to my fullest ability.

    i respect what you people have to say since this is only a board and i have no proof of doing things that i say, but i think there is no reason to lie or exxagerate. I will say now that my bench isnt good for my size. I got 225 for 6 last week and that is my best set of 6 i have gotten.

    Good job, I could believe you, Im 19 5'6 210lbs. I love the squat and it shows on my 28in thighs. I never max out because i dont think that the risk to injury out weighs any possible ego-boosting number i can gloat about. That being said last monday (leg day) I put up 455lbs for 10 reps. do you have any pics that may quiet any doubters here?

    To get a pic on a board you just post like you would normally, scroll down to where it says manage attatchments, there you can upload the image from your computer.

    I am 210lb and squat 495 3 sets of 6, failed on my last rep friday so really 2 sets of 6 and one set of 5. scary though my partner couldnt grab it up because he is shorter than me and when it went to the pins in the rack, he pulled it back and the pins fell out, the whole gym ran over to the rack and helped me thank god!! I am a little scared now to use his help anymore, I will make sure to have two spotters thursday when i max out!

    man don't hate on the kid, he may of lied about his age but that weight is definatly feasable for someone of his size, I am one of the smallest guys in the gym right now and have like the 2nd best squat in the gym too, I'ts all about goal specific training, my goal was to see how much I can squat so trained it almost exclusivly until I got to where i am and It took a surprisingly short time to double my weight, proper form, head back(focus on the celling) proper breathing(big inhale at top and slowlly let it out in bursts as you go up) and hip placement. very possible, what if he does show photo's is everyone going to think they are fake?

    I dont see why so many of you guys are being so hard on this kid and calling him a liar. At 235 pounds I dont see why it is not believable for him to max 550 for one rep. If you look around the Untied States there are plenty of top highschool football players who can squat 550 or more.

    By the way im 5'9 220 and I squat 500 for a one rep max.

    I dont either...235 pounds is a good sized lad..Regardless if hes cut,fat,bulky. Whatever case the case might be,he's still carrying around 235 pounds of bodyweight. I've seen a lot of 700 pound "knee benders" in my life. I don't see why he couldn't do that kind of weight considering football regimens consist of strength training,not bodybuilding workouts.. Coaches could care less about how "pretty" your body looks compared to your ability. Strength is more important then a six pack in football.

    Sure at that age that is a great accomplishment, all depending on the depth of the squat, but most coaches I know of make you actually squat. Maybe not the full "ass to calves" but still deep. Sure id rather see a squat azz to the floor but still thats very possible for him.

    i am not arguing that this kid can't put the weight on his back and dip down a few inches, i am saying parallel squats at that weight for someone who barely has any hair on his nuts is a lil far fetched...........

    agree to disagree then bro, I got a powerlifter at my gym who had his 13 year old skinny son with him the other day and he asked if he could bench press something and his dad said o.k., this 13 year old put up 225 3x!!!!!!!!!!! I was watching in amazment, my max bench is only 315 and Im twice his age and a lot bigger than the kid, point is, his dad is a powerlifter and knows how to train someone to handle HEAVY weight, it's all training, I got a guy doing box squats with around 500 pounds for reps! he's a beast but still he had to start somewhere.

    Way off topic here and a little late but.....
    lol, way over 10 years , I used to live down stairs from ronnie colemen, in a 3 story apartment building in Arlington texas. I was only 10, that was 14 years ago and he used to scare me then he was so **** big. This, of course, was way before Mr. Olympia.
