What is a decent squat with good form? I weigh 150 lbs, am 5'7", and can rep 205 lbs. (I can probably do more than this, but this is where I stopped the other day.) Is this a decent squat for a beginner of my height and weight?

The difference between parallel and ATG is like morning and night,period.If your squat X pounds for parallel,expect to shave off 30-40 pounds off X when you go ATG...Originally Posted by Firepower
