305 for 3 was my best to date.
600 I think is my best gym raw squat but that was awhile ago. I haven't maxed in awhile
Something I can press "yes" for, nice.
squatting 350lbs is not anywhere near as difficult as benching 300lbs. i can squat 350lbs x 12 without much difficulty. if you wanted the two lifts to be roughly equal, it would look as follows:
Bench 300lbs = Squat 500lbs
Bench 300lbs = Squat 500lbs
Paul Definitly. Lee Definitly not after back surgery can't even touch 225
I wasn't going for that. I just think a 350lb squat is impressive.
Agreed, I've never gone above 405 but that was for quite a few reps over a year ago. Knee surgery last year and 2 lumbar herniations will prevent me from ever squatting again.
I'll never forget the time I went to my friends pussified gym and walked in to the squat rack warmed up and after that did reps as to floor with 315.
That's the first time I ever had the pleasure of stopping people in their tracks while lifting.
It wasn't much but in that gym I guess no one ever squatted.

I used to do 500 for two sets of 5 after about 4 work sets a little lower. That was ten years ago when I actually worked in the gym and had free nitrotech shakes. I went up to 315 lately and thats the highest I've been in about five years. Never really been much of a fan of real heavy lifting.
spot on with that comment..for years i didn't squat because i was scared of it.. well i wanted to get into powerlifting and squatting was a must. I could leg press easily 20plates up to 36plates for sets of 20 down to 10 no problem..
first time squatting... couldn't even hit 315 for a single. Squatting is the KING of leg exercises. Not squatting on the smith which WILL hurt your knees along with everythign else but squatting in a cage for safety..i've never seen my legs look this good and be this powerful in a LONG time! High rep squats while playing iwth your stance will blow your legs up more than any other leg exercise combined with anohter one..
so for those that don't squat or those that do and don't feel good about their numbers...anything over 225 is a sick squat..especially if you take it to the floor like a good little girl LOL!
oh yeah...don't like regular squats..
front squats are SICK! here's a video of my personal best... 455 front squat on a parallel box. i know some of you guys like to see a show...
VERY fun! they take soem getting used to..but if you have a back back or have knee problems...front squats take all that out the window and still make you work your ass off!

I am very skeptical about the number of 350 squatters that voted in this poll. Seriously, at a gym, I see approximately 1/20 lifters squat to proper depth, and when they do, it is rarely with any decent weight.
I have, however, squatted a deep 350 before, yes. I recently did 365 on a below parallel box as well.

depends on the gym you go to..if you go to a powerlifting gym 500lbs is norm...
if you go to a corporate gym or ymca.. 315 makes you a god. IT's all relative!
True, when I finally got to 315 the big boys barely noticed but at Ballys I was a Star...a Star for 5 precious minutes.depends on the gym you go to..if you go to a power lifting gym lbs is norm...

Yeah, I have a hard time believing soxmuscle squats 350 but I could be wrong. I mean 5' 7" @ a buck 50. Seems a little farfetched. Def possible but I will need to see a vid of this.
Same here, that was a while ago, I'm not even really close to that now... more like 275.... maybe

I generally go with high rep sets on squats and try to do two working sets of 315x20 but my personal best 1RM is 575 on squats and 395 on bench.
I agree...not to be a dick...just seems some of these claims are a bit much. I can squat basically PARALLEL ONLY at about 405, but to do ass to floor sets @ 315 for numerous sets and numerous reps, I couldn't do it I don;t think. My legs are fairly strong, or so I thought anyways. Hell, maybe I am a pussy @ 6'0 and 207 and benching almost 4 bills as well. I think I am out of whack maybe??!!

Again not to be a dick, or applicable to all...
Seriously?? Mang....
