Not sure if I could, but it all comes down to gradually conditioning yourself.  Squat isn't the exercise to decide to spontaneously challenge yourself to do way more reps than you normally do.  You have to build up to it.  As soon as you unrack that bar, you're on the clock - regardless of whether you go fast or slow.  It's an uncomfortable feeling.  Sort of a rising panic. 

I would estimate that you need to have a 190-200kg 1RM to do that weight (your results may vary).

I've never been a particularly strong squatter.  I think the most I got was probably 12-13reps on 90kg/200lbs at a body weight of 75kg/166lb, and that was doing back squats; I've always hated how my back and abdomen felt when I did them.  I've only just started doing front squats in the last few months; I don't really feel it all that much in those 2 areas, but so much more in the legs.  They're so uncomfortable, though.  It took me about 3-4 weeks just to get the technique right. I never really like to go past 10 reps squatting as I always feel I'm going to pass out, and this feeling is exacerbated for me when I do front squats.

Yes Body Bio Mechanics comes into Play.
Same for Deadlifts.



For me, the squat was the best exercise ever.  I've got some personal bests in leg movements (squat, inverted leg press, leg extension and leg curl) that if I had not done them I would never believe them, LOL!  And Platz, while a contemporary of mine (time wise, mind you as I was never as great a bodybuilder as he was!), was not my inspiration. 

That would be J.C. Hise and the powerlifting men I trained with decades ago.  Good seeing you, brother!

What is this, a message board for estrogen-soaked wimps?

If you can’t, kill yourself.



Relax, eat some veggies and meditate meathead. It's not that serious.

thats not possible as 20 rep blood pump blows the muscle fibers out.
