How much weight can you Squat for 10 reps?

**SomeRandomGuy** · 09-23-2010, 07:37 PM

I think I can get 405. I doubt I could do a heavier weight for 10 reps. I can do 455 for 6. Y'know I take that back. I can do 405x10 with no weight belt, totally raw. I could probably do much more if I had knee wraps and a tight belt on. But I try to strengthen my trunk...

Yeah the old layout was much more user friendly for an iPhone.

I'm hoping for 10 reps with 500 some day. Cool responses, though. My Power Level is Over 9000!

**DSM4Life** · 09-24-2010, 12:13 PM

Ill go weight my bf and get back to you.

**SomeRandomGuy** · 09-24-2010, 11:28 PM

I think people's ego's are getting the way of answering this fairly straightforward question. I wasn't trying to brag, I was just interested in squat rep maxes and/or squat goals. Like I think my squats are anything to be proud of, they aren't shit.

**Matt** · 09-25-2010, 02:45 AM

I stopped doing squats, if there not good enough for Dorian then there not good enough for me....

**jbm** · 09-25-2010, 03:24 AM

thank you!!!... I like walking and appreciate it more in my 30's when my 4plate squating highschool friends bitch about their knee's clicking and sore hips. I'll sick with burning out on 1 or 2 plates at the end of my workout and save my spine some compression

**jbm** · 09-25-2010, 07:50 PM

Well said. I normally run like a little girl as fast as I can away from the squat rack.

what ever happened to the "if it aint broke don't fix it" theory???

**SomeRandomGuy** · 09-26-2010, 12:39 PM

If you're getting injured doing squats, then that's one thing. But tell me another exercise that uses as many muscles simultaneously as this compound exercise? No machine can do all of what the squat does. Yeah, you can split it all up and do quads, hams, adductors, glutes, calves, abs, erectors, obliques. But why, when squats do all of it so well...

Oh and the new forum layout is sucking, the search function doesn't work anymore.

i like squats...they keep all that connective tissue in my lower back stretched out...but i'd say deads is the excercise that makes every muscle in my body strain..including the ones that control my eyeballs cause they cross when i do deads

i hate doing Deads.. i love squats.. but Deads just tear me apart.. i love it but i hate it all for the same reason.. Deads are by far the best exercise you can do for full body.. except maybe clean and jerks.. but they are pretty similar, C&J's are just more geared towards explosiveness for sports palyers..

to answer the OP.. i am currently doing 4x12 of 170kgs at the momoent.. hoping to have that up to 200kg by the end of my cycle

That's a lot of reps for that weight. Nice. I like Deads too. Well I don't like doing them, but they're a great builder... I'm not very good at them. I can get 500lbx3, 530 max... I could do 405 for 10, but my weakest point is off the floor. In the rack I can pull 730 once the bar is up to my knees. I just figure on a cycle, I should be doing reps between 8-12 to get the most mass possible with the least amount of rest in between, so I can't really go super heavy.
