I tend to agree with Mike. I cant imagine a 15 year old squating that much with proper form. Thats well beyond what most serious experienced lifters can do. So do check your form there in regards to whether you are doing a full squat or not.

However, if you enjoy trying to set the best single rep, then I would say powerlifting is the thing for you. It really depends I suppose on what one enjoys most. If you are into symetry and looks then bodybuilding, if you are into max reps then power lifting.

Start out with heavy weights. Squats, deadlifts, bench press, military press, chins, barbell rows. Forget all the overrated pretty boy exercises like curls.

I am sorry but no you don't squat a true 760 lbs at 15 years old and if you did- you wouldn't be asking the question whether powerlifting or bodybuilding should be your main focus. Going down an inch doesn't count, it has to be ATG (Ass to Grass)
