I train for strength and speed since I play basketball (I'm a SG). I'm 16 and play varsity as a junior in high school Just today I squatted (BELOW parallel) 255lbs for 2 sets of 5, a personal record. My PR for the deadlift is 5 reps at 265lbs. I weigh 175lbs. |

Im more into machines than anything, but yeah squats are awesome, and 225 pounds at age 16 is impressive. Here are some videos of my style of training http://thedreamlounge.blogspot.com/2009 ... cular.html -Dream |

its 255*lbs  . I MIGHT max out at around 290lbs, but I'm scared to try.Nice man, so i guess your more into building an impressive looking body. I would love to do that after I'm finished with basketball, but for now I train with free weights and stuff to try to be as "functional" as possible. So I just do compound exercises like bench squats, deads, pushpresses, etc. No machines for me. I'm just glad I got into weightlifting early (age 14) because i can now dunk (i'm 6'0) since 15 years old. |

Very nice but why do you go below parallel? Just today I squatted (BELOW parallel) 255lbs for 2 sets of 5, a personal record. My PR for the deadlift is 5 reps at 265lbs. I weigh 175lbs. I heard that can fuck your knees but what would I know. I can only squat 85kg and deadlift 100kg (I'm about 75kg 18yo and only been gyming for 3 months) for 2 sets of just under 5 (just can't break that fucking wall). |
