I am really into squats right now since they are pretty much all I can do with my injury (shoulder) and am setting some goals for myself. Just interested in everyone else's max squat numbers. Gives me some inspiration and something to strive for.
135 (5x5) @ 5'4, 123. I would be much higher than this by now if I hadn't hurt my back 2 months ago. I'm going to try for a 1 rep max next week. Originally, I was aiming for 155 by Nov 9, then I hurt the back.
Good luck with your squats but just be mindful of your shoulders when doing them. Having the bar across your shoulders and holding it in place during squats puts a lot of pressure on them.

I hear ya on that. What I have is a rotator cuff problem, so really the only time it bothers me during squats is when I lift the bar off the rack, and that doesn't really bother me.
