I certainly haven't. There really aren't that many people in my gym truly squatting 315. Out of the people who actually put that much on the bar, probably 3 out of 10 actually do a parallel squat
Not looking for a pissing match, but probably 75% of my gym can get 315 for 1 rep. We aren't even talking a parallel squat, I'm talking below parallel

Unless you're at a true powerlifting gym i highly doubt this. Not with good form to parallel.

I move a lot for work so I've been members of a ton of gyms the last 10 years. From my experience I can tell you that outside your OLY-specific or power lifting-only gyms, that figure is absurdly high. I'm currently at a 24 Hour Fitness, and there's not a chance in hell our percentage is over 15% for past parallel of 315.
