How much can you squat?

My best was 645 raw w/out wraps at the APF Show of Strength last June but I stretched my left LCL a little while doing it. I'm hoping to beat that this upcoming April at another APF meet but this time I'll be a 308 instead of a super heavy.
Very impressive! IMO - you easily had another 20# on that effort!

one of my videos I posted up- I get set under the bar- then back out- and I start giggling..
and I'm pretty sure you can *just* barely hear me say "never trust a fart on squat day. LULZ- because- NEVER trust a fart on squat day.
Haha! I love people who are honest! I had to fail at the bottom of a rep a while back for that very reason, I knew if I went to "push" the weight up it would have ended very badly!!!0 -
285lbs (1X5) @ 170 body weight.. I just started incorporating squats and deads in October. I have been gradually increasing my strength. I fell it's a mental struggle for me to get stuck at the bottom. I have been trying to pass this blockage. I want to be able to rep out 315 sometime in January.0

The most I've ever done is 315. Haven't gone heavier since, but I doubt I can do much more just yet.0

A paltry 240 on 5X5 currently. I've never done a 1RM, I need to find me some spotters...0

Then put 2 plates, 2 35's and 1 quarter on each side. Srs. I do it with lifters that I train all the time, it works.0 -

Doesn't matter if you don't squat deep.. Learned that the hard way... back squat finally up to 315x2.0

I'm reduced to sets of 3-4 @275lbs because my hamstring has been bugging me.0

I think u mean doesn't count if u don't squat deep. In powerlifting ur hip joint must be below ur knees.below parallel.otherwise doesn't count0 -
225x5 @ 172lbs. I was up around 245 at one point but my form was sloppy so I dropped back down0

As of the end of last week I was at 210 for 5x5.0

Some awesome numbers here! Current platform best of 120kg/264lb, and just did an easy 3rm at 245lb on Sunday0

5x5 is 140 which is my body weight. I have come to terms that I will never be able to pull huge #'s in the squat rack. I have a jacked up lower back and crap knees.0

truth- I've put 3 plates on my DL because I'm hovering at 305- and it hasn't worked- I mean- i've tried adding the two 5's- but that hasn't worked either- but yeah- extra big plates is an instant turn off LMAO.Sorry to thread jack, but I have not ever seen a picture of your face before and you my dear are stunning!! That is all. Carry on!
aw thank you so much <blush>
was time for a change LOL- I'll change it back to something inappropriate in a month or two LOL serious A@@ always made me chuckle...
funny story- I'm constantly scrolling past my posts when I'm trying to catch up b/c I forget it's me LOL0
