So google etc just says 1.5 times body weight blah blah blah,

Is that listed as a 1rm?

What’s everyone squat for ten reps?

Me personally I injured my back years ago and am very timid on the squat but I’m currently doing 110kgs for ten reps of 3 sets and I weigh 110kgs too. So I’m only squatting my body weight which according to google is absolute beginner trash it seems.

    Yes, that’s a 1RM figure.

    Don’t worry too much about how you stack up against standards, just try to make sure you’re making progress over time. Follow a reputable program for guidance until you know what works for you.

    If you want to squat with less back involvement, you can also try belt squats instead.
