My First Real Squat

Stan McQuay, IFBB pro recalls how he became familiar with his first “real squat.”

“Back in ’96, I remember dong a set of squats with 315 pounds. When I finished my last rep, I looked around the gym proudly and noticed that biggest guy in the room was staring at me. He shouted out: “Now let’s see you do a real squat!” I had no idea what he was talking about. He showed me that a ‘real’ squat meant bringing you ass to the floor. I had to take off two plates just to do one set of real squats that day.”
