I'm 5'6 100kg and crying into my box of doughnuts right now.

You are just the 100kg real life version of Mr Strong

6'2 and 87kg, I want to get back to over 90kg but I also want abs....

When people talk about balance and keeping the centre of gravity in the same place through the movement... 140kg as well, cheeky kermit.

Naming conventions:
20kg = 1 plate
10kg = 1/2 plate
5kg = 1/4 plate
2.5kg = donut
1.25kg = biscuit
1kg = crisp packwt

How many days rest do you guys take between legs/squat days?

 

[mrthingyx]

How many days rest do you guys take between legs/squat days?

Every day is leg day.

But seriously, I do legs three times a week.

 

[RaohNS]

How many days rest do you guys take between legs/squat days?

Depends what you are after. I do a set 11/12 days apart one light day and one heavy. In between that are deads, but I know people who do them weekly and they have said they don't see good gains

 

[MoNkeE]

Ha Raoh I never knew that

 

[Dreamforger]

This. Well, I squat 3 times a week anyway.

Strictly speaking it was 112.5 but tbh I dont count half kilo weights

 

[MoNkeE]

Why?

 

[FrenchTart]

I don't count any plates less than 20KG personally.

Makes it tough when I'm trying to curl with my oly DBs though - that step up from zero KG to 40 is painful
