sounds like a load of shit to me. You would have a massive lower body and a frail upper body. I think you might add mass all over your body because of this, but i dont think huge guns come from squats.
to each their own 
congratulations on reaching your goals
Not to steal the thread, but could someone help me on something? I am 15, have been working out for 2 years and I am confused on what split I should do? You guys are talking about increasing arm size and how you should do arms in the beginning of the workout, well what split should I do for that?
Sorry, I would make my own thread, but this is the first time I have posted on this thread and dont know how yet, sorry.

It was 35.2 lbs wasn’t it? Don’t push your limits man…
That squat article was modified, it originally said squatting 2x your bodyweight. Squatting 2x your bodyweight for 20 reps would make you one strong badass, though.

By the way,here is my present routine…
My workout is:
1)Squat/B-Press/Row
2)D-Lift/Dip/P-Up
Performed M-W-F
I rotated each workout for 4 weeks heavy and then 1-2 weeks light…[/quote]
Woah! Imbalance! HELP! somebody please help!
The statue of justice will put everything on her scales.
Squat is a push. Deadlift is a pull. Good.
B-press is a push, Rowing is a pull.
Good.
Push up is a push, and dips are a push. Talk about a guy with a big chest and no back. what the heck?
How about taking away the push ups and adding pull ups.
Squat. Bench. Dip.
Deadlift. Row. Chin.
Much better balance.
Take my advice for what it is worth.
To illustrate my viewpoint, read the article called “the linitov workout”. Look at the picture of the dude. He squatted. That is all he did. He had legs the size of tree trunks, but his upper body looked like an overweight truckers to me.

How about adding this to my routine???
Add two exercises and I promise your arms will grow, stay with the dips for tri’s and add 4 sets of skull-crushers, 10, 10, 8, 6
Add 4 sets of standing barbell curls either with a straight bar or e-z bar, 10, 10, 8, 6

P-up could very well be a pullup.

it’s not that simple. you don’t necessarily have to do the exact same amount of exercises between the ‘push’ and the ‘pull’ categories.
same goes for ‘lower body’ and ‘upper body exercises’. some people seem to think you need to have an equal amount of exercises/sets/reps between the two categories of exercises. this is not necessarily true.
I would suggest you take a look at Ian King’s “Great Guns in Twelve Weeks.”
