Why do you get tired after a workout?
This is by no means a comprehensive list, but here are some reasons that readily come to mind: 1. Being out of shape- If you haven't been exercising, your body hasn't been reaping the benefits. Being overweight puts an extra burden on your muscles, making it more difficult to exercise and move about. When you exercise, you also help to strengthen your heart, improve its efficiency and total volume of blood. All this extra blood means more oxygen to your muscles, allowing energy to be used at a greater rate. Without this help from cardiovascular conditioning, you'll be huffing and puffing. 2.Not enough food prior to exercise- Your body's like an engine, and without fuel, it's not going anywhere. Just a small amount of carbohydrates and a half hour to an hour prior to exercise can really help to improve endurance. 3. Dehydration- Stay hydrated during exercise. 4.Some other underlying disease or condition- See your doctor for a diagnosis.

What is the average squat of an 8th grader?
The average 16 year old either has never been to the gym or hasn't been using one for over a year. Therefore I'd say about their bodyweight, so 60-80 kg maybe? that's an estimate though obviously.

It really depends on your weight and height, but usually the average 16 year old squats 140%+ of his weight.
The upper-75 percentile can usually go for 180%+.
And Doing 210-230%+ of your weight is pretty darn good.
I'm 168.4 pounds, and can squat 375 lbs, but I have been powerlifting since 7th grade. And yes I'm 16 years old.
