We are talking about having a 1 rep max squat over or at 300 lbs, right?


1. You said 315
2. 300 lbs still is too heavy for damn near anyone who hasn't really lifted unless you're some genetic freak.

Especially squats of all things. People rarely have a natural abundance of lower body power and lots of flexibility.

No, people keep changing the goal posts

I originally said I've seen people walk in the gym and squat 315 without never squatting before. I put the percentage as small but I've seen it done

Then the guy was talking about people at his gym as a whole who can squat 300.

My numbers could be off. I didn't realize 300 was looked at as a spectacular benchmark for a squat.
