I only really asked because you always here people say things like this. Your squat should be more if your bench is X, or whatever. I think a lot of people look at these number and say oh his squat is low compared to his bench, he doesn't train legs enough, or correctly. But thats not necessarily true.

A few years ago I had a 5rm of 315 on bench, and a 5rm of 295 for squats. I heard the same type of things from people on many boards. But my recovery from a ME bench day, was so much faster then an ME squat day it was ridiculous. I was able to add weight to the bar on bench more quickly just because of this.

Dont get me wrong, if a guy has a huge bench, and a sub 200lb squat, there is something wrong. But a 300lb squat is something most people have to work very hard to get to.
