bench to squat ratio

[Race23]

So is it just me or do you guys have a sort of weird bench to squat ratio? For example my bench is around 155 but my squat is 295 so it's like really almost 2:1 ratio. Is taht normal?

Your bench is really low incomparison to your squat.

I can only assume you have thick legs, but long ass arms and/or narrow shoulders.

Having a squat 1.5x or more your bench is pretty common as you get into higher weights.

hmmm....most of the time when I see a weaker lifter (no offense) that has that off of a ratio there are not doing squats below parallel.

Good point tblock1.

That is almost too large of a difference to be caused by your build.
