Squat Poll

hey, im just wondering the average max squat for teenagers. please post your weight etc as well. thanks. ages 13-18.

To parrallel, over 350.

I have a long way to go, my max so far is 180lbs, though i dont squat much and am taking it easy due to my tendons being too short to properly squat without it hurting but im gradually stretching them, I havent maxxed squatted in a few weeks so i might be able to push out 200lbs if i really tried lol

I'd say around 250... just started legs back up this month cause of cross country season; before that I havn't done legs since the summer, so I need to give it some time too.

10 reps of 305 though i could have done 315 last time but the squat rack was broke and i had to use a smith machine  i dont count those as true squats. not sure what my max is.

do you train cuz you all should be doing more then that im 17 190 and doing 490 maby i just train harder then all of u or your not bushing your selfs

or we're more focused on our literacy skills to be able to train to 490
 
How tall are you dude?
 
I've noticed short people can squat a lot more Bodyweight/squatweight than taller people, i mean poor NQ here is 6'4" and at 200lbs he's still a damn beampole in comparison to a lot of other guys here (No offence mate, youre one of the strongest here, dont beat me up lol, always remember, as soon as you start getting to 220-230lbs you'll be one damn big beefy guy) yet hes squatting 350+ and that was quite some time ago so he's probably near 400 now.
 
Being taller is a disadvantage with squats, if youre 190lbs at 5'4" or something then youre VERY filled out muscle wise and will be able to squat ****loads in general.
 
Also do you do a full squat?
Legs bent right down?
 
Its just that i've seen some seriously big guys in the gym stack on 4 plates each and strain doing 5 reps fully, and these guys are BIG, like 6-6'3 at 240lbs, 4 plates being a good 400lbs nearly, and these are men, like 25-30, they are at there peak of testosterone and muscle building.
 
I have a slight discomforted feeling that your squats are a little kneee bending then straight back up
 
But hey if im wrong then good on you, keep up the great work.

hey man im six foot and yes i do go all the way down cuz we have to for powerlifting in not braggan im just saying that some of them on there stats shoude b doing more then that but i dont know them to juge them sorry if i put them down and yes we do use wraps but i dont count that cuz that not all you
 

Mine is 200 i weigh 105 and im 5'1

im 5'6" 19 and 268
squated a set of 405 for 2
i dont think this is my max
havent given it a shot yet

The thing with teenagers and squats/bench press maxes are that they cheat.

I used to do it. At school we did maxes, I maxed 420. I can't do 420, i did quarter squats. Also bench presses, there's a certain area when you are pressing where if you go right back up, you could max out 25 pounds more than you should be.

estimated my max at 305.  haven't tried it though, haven't got a spotter.  i'm 17, 6'2, 185.  let me tell you, when you are tall, thats a long way to go down.  no quarter knows what i'm talking about.

I'm 17 and I parrallel squat 420. That's what power lifting is. not full squats, your hip bone is parrallel to the ground. and i've used wraps they easily add 30 lbs to your max if not more. I don't like them but I use them to compete at meets. I can get 480 w/wraps, but its kind of like cheating.

I'm shooting for 650ish at states....
 
I use a squat suit and knee wraps....
 
Proly bout 525-550 RAW though.

did 405 today.  woot.
