Title: Do you think I could squat 1.5x my bodyweight?
Post by: Biglittleme on February 19, 2013, 01:14:48 am

Hi,

I have limited amount of weights at home...
so I normally do single leg exercises like 1 leg squat (or pistol squat) and bulgarian split squat etc.
I just wanted to know if you guys think I could squat 1.5x my bodyweight? ( I need this information for this program, and if i had access to gym I would've checked there, but i don't so I'm asking on adarqui.org (: )
Anyway, I weigh 60kg,
I can pistol squat with about 25-30 KG weight (with assists - grabbing onto bar etc) for about 5-8 reps.
And i can do BSS with 48KG for about 10-11 reps.

Do you guys think I could squat 1.5x my bodyweight? And for extra question, any thoughts/guesses on how much my 1rep max could be?

Thank you!

Hmm, no real way to tell from those stats as they're both unilateral exercises. BSS @ 48kgs is pretty good.

I guess you could. I can squat 115kgx5 (smith machine at 73kg bodyweight) and I´m doing only 40kgx6 on split squats
