If you only ever trained the squat and got it up to 1000kg, how much do you think you could bench?

I've recently been pondering the concept of (front) squat only training. I nearly started a thread about it.

Please do that for several years and then test your bench press.

Depends if you were weakened by mosquito bites or not.

For sure, they are right little bas***ds. I wish I filmed the 150kg max double becca did one week before she pulled that 227.5kg in just soft belt after 10 events and two days competing. I swear down she was shaking like crazy just to get a 2nd rep with the 150kg. She's still a bit ill now.

Lets assume not. Its rarely a problem for the competing athlete.

For the squat it depends, is the 1000kg raw or suited? If raw you'd bench 300 no bother, if suited, you'd be lucky to bench 60.
