How many Nattys that you know of squat over 500 lbs? Just curious. Be honest.

I was 15 and in the powerlifting nationals when I hit 457-2 out of 3 white lights. Same contest I did a 473.25 dead, in which I slipped a disc which interrupted my squatting for 6 years. Now I am on the road back and recently hit 405 for 6 good reps. 500 is the next goal.

Thanks, it kind of sucks to say that you were the strongest you ever were when you were 15-18 or so. But on the other hand, I kid you not, I LIVED for bodybuilding and Arnold and Pumping Iron back in those days. I would watch pumping iron 2-3x daily sometimes, and almost always at least once. I got up to a bulky 255lbs when I was 18 or so and hit 335 on the flat bench for an easy 6,as I recall, but that is soooooo far from where I am at right now, it's not even funny. I'm 23 now and giving bodybuilding a real try again( i never stopped, but for a while, my head wasn't nearly as in the game as it was back then-although, still more in the game than the average guy).

at 5'7 190 i squat on leg day at least 405 for 5-8 depends on energy and that could be with plates under feet,close stance or normal shoulder width apart.

Well remember, smith squats or mach squats dont count. And none of this halfway stuff.
Yesterday i loaded 405 and did 8 full reps. Ass to heels. The freakin bar was bending it was awesome. These are not powerlifter squats where the bar rests behind traps. Up on traps and head level. I am around 250lbs tho so its not as impressive as the teen guy. Props to him.

I was regularly squatting over 500 for 4-8 reps(parallel) before I started having issues with my knee(tendinitis). Its gotten to the point that I'm laying off quads fo a while. I've done 405 for 12, 500 for 8, and 530 for 4.

well props to you, because i have NEVER squatted 405, ass to heels. My squats are almost always very 'powerlifterish'...no quite the good morning that Fred Hatfield calls a squat, but definitely not the ass to heels bodybuilders squat either.

You know, for the decen leg devleopment i have, i dont squat as much as I look i can squat.

If I start on swuats, warm up, then first set 225x10, second set 275/8, third set 315/6-8 and fourth set ill die with 405 for 3-4 hard reps..

Pisses me off, bc id like to get 6-8 with 405...oh well..just not a strong squatter..and i go all the way down too..

Derik Farnsworth is said to have squatted over 800 pounds for reps...Lifetime natural, he wife stated many times that Derik has never even touched creatine or glutamine ect...All at a weight well below 190 pounds...Crazy strong...

Not that incredible a feat for a natty. Rare and impressive, but not impossible. I was squatting 405 for 10 when I was 20. The heaviest I've squatted was 545 for 2 at 5'6" and about 175 pounds when I was about 25. I wouldn't even think about trying that now.

When you come off the bottom it bounces. Youd know if you ever worked legs before.

i hate squats but im 315 for 3-4 reps ass to the ground. pathetic, i weigh about 190-195. although im lucky and just have naturally big legs, i can however hit 8 plates per side on the leg press for 2 reps. still not that great

BallzDeep69 · « **Reply #16 on:** June 05, 2006, 09:22:04 PM »

I know how you feel man. It's hard to really push yourself with legs when you're happy with how they look.

i couldnt have put it any better bnallz deep, i guess the only reason ireally do wm is so i dont get called a pussy and for the extra test release, but i have almost 26 inch thighs and a notch under 17 inch calves, but i train calves hard every other day, its my upper body that needs the most work, i cant get my arms or chest any bigger. arms are stuck at 16

GET_BIGGER · « **Reply #19 on:** June 06, 2006, 01:43:15 PM »

Nothing is ever "stuck". There is always a way.

lilwoday09smb · « **Reply #20 on:** June 06, 2006, 02:47:07 PM »

well then my growth has slowed for the moment but i plan on doing a power routine and really bulking up this fall, not gonna worry to much about body fat, however im gonna try to keep it as low as possible. at 19 id say im normal but id like to be much bigger. only supps i take is protein and a multi

texasRUSH · « **Reply #21 on:** June 09, 2006, 08:19:57 AM »

500 for reps now...565 for a single...

i thought 600-700 lbs was huge for a natural...not the 500's

maybe it's a height/weight thing..

GET_BIGGER · « **Reply #22 on:** June 09, 2006, 08:59:40 AM »

500 is a lot in my book, that is fo sho.

texasRUSH · « **Reply #23 on:** June 09, 2006, 09:08:02 AM »

is it impossible to think a natural could leg press 1500+lbs?

i hit a grand full reps this week...partials i got 1750...but touching my ass put a whole new perspective on it.
