Why can I do 8+ dips at a bodyweight of 95kg but barely bench 60kg?
What is this shit?
Shit form l
Why can I leg press 240kg for 10 reps full ROM calves touching hamstrings but I can't squat 100kg for 1 rep?

weight isn't the same, the machine translates it (through a sled etc.) and it's actually less; something to the factor of 1.7x less
the thing with dips is, that I'm literally hanging there, pressing myself up and down and I weigh 95 fucking fatass kilograms.
But when I'm under a bar, I cannot for the life of me bench more than 60kg for five. Even with a fucking powerlifting arch and my ass raised off the bench
it's ludicrous
my arms are fucking long, granted, but come the fuck on
I can dip to parallel just fine

You're also squatting your own bodyweight (minus your shins)+that 100kg of the barbell. and of course, consider the fact that the leg press sled is at a 45 degree angle, which results in that additional factor of 1.7.

That's hardly the reason. My bet would be he hasn't learned to control the weight. Don't think about squat as a leg exercise, it should be a movement pattern you train. Any weak link makes for a bad, flimsy squat. Could be lowerback, abs, quads, hammies, etc
