i was able to get 10 good strict full reps with 65 pounds, meanwhile i can close grip bench press 225 for 10 wtf ??? ??? ???
anyways, what's the best way to increase full squat strength? 5 reps, 10 reps, 20 reps, and how often per week?
i'm not looking to gain any size really, i just want to greatly increase my strength
even 185 for 10 full strict reps would be acceptable, but not 65 pounds :D

you should post this on the "Nobody gives a shit" subforum of this site

i used to train legs. then i started cycling, on a bike, i couldnt do it, got a pump in 60 seconds. so i stopped training leg. i tried again the other week on back day and managed two sets before it felt like my legs were going to collapse. i think its hard to combine an endurance leg sport with a power based one...
i used to be able to do 140kgs squats for two sets of 20 reps...

Squat develops very fast once you start hitting them. It's so exhausting all-in exercise that you feel like shit at beginning even if you have some training under your belt.
Don't know about "best ways" as I have very straight forward approach with everything in life; do it more and you get better.
Of course I'm one of the greatest squatters out there and hence qualified to comment ::)

65 lbs not kilos lol

my grandma used to carry that much weight home from the shops....

thanks for the feedback bro
yeah i know once you start practicing an exercise you improve your technique and skill at it just by practicing it, like shooting a basketball
supposedly low reps are better to increase strength but not put on size, especially with legs

Add 5 pounds to the bar, if you can do 10 good reps with 70, add another 5, once you get 10 good reps with that, add another 5, and so on...

you are weak as shit
i'd enjoy embarrassing you in the gym in front of all the honeys

A lot of low rep sets ( 3-6 reps)with 3-4 min rest work wonders for pure power
-
Maybe you should enter the Crane Classics ;D
You can build good legs even with that small amount of weight.

This is getbig, so OP is using inflated numbers and was most likely only able to squat the ezcurl bar for 4 reps.

my life changes once I realized I could point my feet out at angle , rather that straight forward

I will give you a serious answer - stay with that light weight for a while. But do them like this: squat down, and I mean all the way down. Down to where you are basically resting in the full squat position. Count to three, Then come up. Doing your squats like that will give you almost immediate increase in strength, you'll see.

Brilliant!

I havnt squatted for around 10 year, dont need to do them to maintain your legs... You can pump out perfect lovely squeezy reps on the leg press instead with out fucking your back/hips or knees
-
i always do leg press first around 300kg for 20-25 reps, then another 2 sets but the reps will be a lot less bcs of fatique
then i do some front squats about a dozen reps with 140 kg on first set then taper down next 2 sets
then just a bit of leg extensions
that's all you need for quads really no brain surgery

5*5 once a week, should be able to add 5-10 lbs per week. Good for 4 -8 weeks. Keep the volume low, they can drain your energy big time if you aren't used to it and go high volume high rep. Good luck.
