Squat Goals
My personal best squat is 325 on 8/30/18. My goal is to get to a number greater than 342. That number by the way is not arbitrary. That particular number comes from the beyond bigger leaner stronger book as part of a calculation to determine if you are ready to start the BBLS ( Beyond Bigger Leaner Stronger) book. It is calculated by multiplying your goal weight by 1.75. My goal weight is 195-220. I will probably tweak this once I get closer to that weight. I am really looking to be at a body fat % of between 5-10%. I think that will be around 195 for me but will know better once I am closer to that weight. I am excited today though because I increased my squat by 30 pounds and I am now at 255 pounds on my squat! I am jumping numbers so quickly right now in my “newbie gains” and I am just over joyed! My starting squat weight was 195 to give some perspective.
