    Question How much should a person be able to squat

    I've heard that it should be twice your body weight. Is this true, if not than what?

    Twice one's bodyweight?!

    Use the tools of the trade to help you. I use devices such as chalk for grip strength, gloves, wrist straps, lifting belts - if it helps you lift more, it's all good. - Ronnie Coleman, Hardcore, 2007 Triumph Books

    Biggest question in bodybuilding: Whaddaya bench? As I've said before, it doesn't matter how much you bench; it matters how much you [i]look[/i] like you bench... There's no round on stage that's the benchpress round. - Bob Chicherillo, World Class Physique, CMG

    You should squat whatever weight you can squat without incorrect form.

    I'm not sure about your squats but I'll bet an emu can squat more than you. They are a creature you don't want to mess around with.

    How much should a person be able to squat?

    They'd better be able to squat all the weight they put on the bar. Otherwise, they'll look like a fool.

    I prefer an ostrich to an emu...I do believe they are a bit larger, therefor should be able to squat more.



    EDIT: Do you see the thighs on this ****er? They're huge...he must do at least 400
