Big kid like you should be squatting 550 before you start asking questions like that. And 550 is a good start but isnt elite by no more means.Originally Posted by Joshuascoles14

yes, its strong in that you'll be better than 97%-99% of the people that show up at the gym and lift weights. However, alot of room ahead to get stronger.

You're stronger than the gym rats but you'll need to push up to at least 2x your BW to be considered "strong" for power-lifting. Keep at it; you're only 19 years old.

If I see anyone in my gym squat 405, legit (meaning controlled and to depth), then yeah, I consider them strong. Respect is given.

If I saw anyone in the gym performing squats with good technique I would respect that person regardless of how much weight is on the bar.
Regardless of how much weight is on the bar and how perfect the technique is I would not respect someone acting like a douche.My Training Journal: http://tinyurl.com/jasons-journal
