I wasn't asking to belittle you but techniques and different approaches are required when dealing with lower weight (less advanced/typically new or uncoached) and higher weight (advanced and know the usual programs)



O yea, no offense taken.

Much different from a person doing 300 ( could just work on technique and getting proper shoes and instantly add 20-30 lbs) and 600 (who probably already know technique)


Absolutely. I got a buddy right at 450 and he gets ecstatic if he gains like 10 on his squat in a couple months haha.

I think if it is a mental issue, do box squats in a power rack. Get use to the weight and work on the explosive part off the box without worrying about the bar since you have the rack.

Work on your core and deadlift as well. Also, consider pushing up on the bar with your arms like an overhead press to help your lower body get the weight. Squats are an entire body exercise.
