Do you know the proper form for the squat variation you will be doing (high bar, low bar, front squat)? If not, suggest you find a good tutorial and learn how/when to stand, position your head, brace, breathe, break knees, drop into the hole, stand back up, etc. While you are learning, don't worry about the load. Just keep it light, and do lots of low reps (singles, doubles, triples).

If/when you have the form down, suggest 3 sets of 8-10 reps to start. When you can do all three sets comfortably (in good form, of course), add 10 lbs. After you've been at it for two or three months, we can talk about more volume and/or greater intensity, based on your goals.

Be strong. Be in shape. Be a man among men, regardless of your age or circumstances.
