Is it just a meme?
How many of you can do 3 plates for 5?

I NEVER see someone squatting at my gym, and when they do it's with ****ty form.
Why do people ignore this exercise???

[AgRyan]

I haven't gone over 2 plates on any lift in quite awhile. Just no good reason too. I'm not powerlifting. 225 for reps is fine for anything in terms of natty recreational lifting.

People care more about being able to fit in their sisters jeans instead of being athletically balanced.

[JamesA1990]

squatting 3 plates is most likely e stats

[LukeS1]

I just squat 2 plates for sets of 15 most of the time, I don't really care to go too heavy nor do I want big legs just ones that look proportionate

Do always admire the guys that can squat 4+ plates for reps though

This thread is truly new and exciting.

Substitute 'squat' with either bench or deadlift (nobody does enough plates!111) and there you go. Recipe for a true Misc success.

[TheDragonDaddy]

depends what the main focus of the gym is, My gym is a strongman gym, everyone squats and everyone squats heavy. Love me some knee bends

everyone keeps saying "2 plates , two plates, plates man toooo plates)

WTF is plates is it 20kg, 25kg or 50kg each??

First, post from your real account. 2nd, this is the US...it’s lbs. So 45 lbs plates or 20.4 kg or whatever that chit is.

Can't 3 plate for 5 just yet.

about half a dozen girls in my gym can Squat 2 plates though.

[cameronpgormley]

i squat 4 plates but that will keep increasing as I’m only lifting for 1year and 3months, it’s true though man I have never seen anyone other than myself squat over 2 plates, kind of ridicolous when someone’s bench press is more than there squat lol

That was 355lbsx4, I was 16 at the time.

I have a herniated disc atm but I'll be back. My max dropped dramatically so I'm building back up from 185lbs for 5x5.

[Gayle1]

I can squat 4 plates for sets of 3-5.
2 plates for sets of 16 sounds painful.
