I don't consider 405 a strong squat (and yes I can squat 405) unless you're under 180. It does feel good to get, but it's just a stepping stone to 500 or 405 for reps.
I do respect anyone moving 315+ for reps on deep squats. Shows that you've put forth some effort. Unless you're on stuff or a genetic freak, that will take a lot of hard work to get.
Good luck to all of you. If you're at 365+ I would recommend the first cycle of Smolov. It got me over the hump.
While 405 is far from a world-class squat, it is a giant stepping stone. Like you, I've hit this and higher many times before. However, unlike you, I've never felt the need to volunteer this information in a thread dedicated to those who are helping each other try to achieve it. Nor have I ever felt the need to validate any lifter who hasn't his this milestone yet. I understand the importance of squatting 4 plates, and never would I attempt to patronize any fellow lifter for their achievement.
Nobody cares what you consider to be strong. I guess what I'm trying to say is that you're a complete assbag. I figure I should give you my reasons for ignoring your posts, in the hope that you'll stop being such a raging mega-douche.
