A 330 bench at 62 would make highly competitive .
Um, an 860 squat on a squat machine? You're either a horrible liar, or you don't know what a squat machine is. A squat machine would be a Smith Machine or hack squat apparatus. You did not squat 860 on either of these. More than likely you loaded a hip sled or leg press machine to 860 lbs and did about 4" range of movement. If you're going to lie, at least make it believable.

There's no such thing as a "squat machine". There's a leg press (where I can do literally 4x what I can squat), hack squat, smith machine, various leg machines, and some where you have a levered load on your shoulders. There's no squat machine. It's either a squat or it's not. And even with a barbell on your shoulders, if it's not at least parallel, it's not a squat.
860 on a machine might be amazingly strong, but there's no way of knowing unless you know exactly what machine and you can't compare it to an actual squat.

Kind of what I said right?

After approximately 3 years of brutal weight training without steroids:

Deadlift: 484

For three years, I suffered from severe muscular soreness. There were countless days I could barely walk up the stairs, and walking down the stairs was painful as well, yet the progress I made over 3 years was mediocre. My strength gains plateaued after about 6 months of intense drug free weight training.
After 6 weeks of steroid use, I suffered no muscular soreness, and I found that all my workouts were easy. The strength gains from steroids are just ridiculous. It is just too easy.
Steroids also dramatically decreased my time for a 1 mile run on a treadmill. Steroids lowered my body fat while significantly increasing my muscle mass. My relative strength was dramatically increased, and I believe that steroids also boosted my production of red blood cells.
Why are there so many idiots claiming that steroids are a just a shortcut? I could never bench press 180Kg without steroids.
It is all steroids. 99.9% all of those so-called elite athletes are just dumb steroid users. It is all BS.
Within 2 weeks after my last dose of steroids, I would have passed every damn drug tests! I would be considered drug free according to current drug tests. What a joke!
But you were still mindbogglingly slow.

The numbers are correct and yes that's what I do at this advanced age of 62."SQUAT" on this, DB. Call it what you want, matters not to me. Smith, squat, hack squat, whatever. Its not squatting with a bar on my shoulders cause my knees would blow. Like you.

What kind of machine? 860 on a "squat machine" is meaningless unless you tell what machine.
Are you saying you do 860 on both a Smith machine and a hack squat machine? Those are two entirely different things, it'd be an amazing coincidence that you do the same precise number on both.
And you squat on dumbbells? What does that mean?
A Smith squat also has a bar on your shoulders. And why does having a bar on your shoulders blow your knees out while having a padded load on your shoulders like other "squat machines" not blow your knees out?
If you barbell bench 330 (assuming that's not a machine), you know your way around a weight room, why do you not know what "squat machine" you're using?

Alright DB's, for those hung up on the minutia "barbell bench" 330 (with a spotter), "hack squat" 860. The hack allows me to go to a level that keeps my knee anatomy intact. Any other questions???? Squat on this dumbell.

The world record squat for your age and weight is 545 lbs. If you can real squat 64% of what you machine squat, you can set the world record.
Go for it!

Interesting, however I'd have to do an olympic style squat. WAY to much knee stress.
