Squats using 145 lbs for 15 reps is VERY impressive. Just a simple question though: what is your depth like on those? I don't mean to come across as a jerk, but more often than not, what people consider a "squat" is more like a slight knee bend.

I go 'til the top of my thighs are parrallel to the ground.
Patricia says " If a man's rep area for muscle gains would be 6-10, than a woman's would be 8-12, for example. " .. I don't want to "gain muscles" nescesairly..

The only way you will find out what works best for you is to experiment for yourself and not listening to a personal trainer that tells you that using 15-20 reps is the best way to get toned

humm I never talked about getting toned.. I train mostly for endurance in xc-skiing and backpacking..

However, with that being said, we have no way in knowing what weight you should be using for a given rep range.

THANKS! knowing that I'm not supposed to know that already helps me alot! I thought I was just missing some magic forumal.
I'll try sometime the 6 reps.. I'm curious.. and find out for myself.. (BTW he's not my "personal" trainer.. just the trainer who's does my routines.. the rest is up to me.)
