3pl8 at least.
Sorry, lad.
is that even possible to squat natty?
Yeah totally, but you have to be either a fatass or very dedicated.
For most people, yes.
5x5 is a joke. Do 2 sets with 10+ reps and a drop set of deep atg squats. Also make sure to work your hips and hamstring so that your knees don't break in half mid squat.

what does this mean? any tips?
Squat university has a lot of videos on knee pain. The tldw is that knee pain is sometimes caused by stiffness or a lack of mobility in the hips, hamstrings or the glutes. So you need to train all accessories to not get chronic knee pain from squatting
which accessories do you recommend from a minimalist point of view?
leg curl
can I get this in actually landed on the moon units please?
I got from 60kg to 105kg for 5 squat doing starting strength for a month
Sorry I thought you were asking how long to get to 100kg
squat twice a week, put 5kg every time to progress?
I'm doing it three times a week +5kg every time if you eat at a surplus it should feel pretty easy. going for 110kg on Monday
fatigue is gonna hit you in the butt pal, causing an injury.
your lower back must be beat to shit.
considering you max out every workout - how is progression on other exercises? deadlift per se
It's only been a month I do high bar which doesn't annihilate my lower back as low bar does deadlift went from 100kg to 140kg my ohp and bench are shit though started at 40kg and and I'm doing 65kg I find the fatigue not too bad I was doing 6 90 minute bodybuilding workouts before and I felt I accrued way more fatigue doing that I know the progress is eventually gonna stall but I'm just trying to build a strength baseline for when I go back to bodybuilding
for me, i noticed leg gains when i was getting close to squatting 100kg.
My pr was 100kg but yesterday I did 80kg and failed my third set of 2 reps.
WTF
One would've thought I'd have gotten stronger because I kep training my legs with pistol squats
