Curious what your 3RM was for squats? I've always thought my rep work was weak in comparison to my max, but my programming is going off of a "max" higher than I've actually hit now, so apparently that's not the case anymore.
(My best is 295, I think the highest I've ever hit for 3 reps is 265.) Apples to oranges, but just made me curious lol.0 -
I don't test my 1RM for another 3 weeks, but here is what I currently do for 6 reps, at 3 sets; and for fun, I did a 1RM calculator). I am 178lbs.
DL/Squat - 235lbs (Est 1RM 275)
Bench - 155lb (Est 1RM 185)
Following: Bigger Leaner Stronger. I am in week 5. With very little/inconsistent heavy lifting prior. I did 4 weeks of 5/3/1 until lift got in the way.0 -

It was 270. I don't know how the calculators work, but I would not be surprised if my max was higher than the reps say. Based only on my anecdotal experience of lifting with others. My 1RM was significantly higher than my friends, however they could do as many and sometimes a rep or 2 more than me at moderate weights.0 -

I think I should find a spotter sometime to figure out my 1RMs. Seems worth knowing.
Sometimes I wish people would post about really obscure exercises. "Hey bro, how much do you shrug?"1 -
female 5'6 130 lbs -
squat: 110 lbs
deadlift: 115 lbs
bench: a strong 60 lbs
this is after a year of hard effort, mostly getting form perfected before weight progression. i feel some big gains coming this year though!

I'm sure it's some kind of formula, but of course our bodies don't really give a crap about actually working as some number suggests it may.
My rep numbers have gone up a bit the last few months, but I have yet to see that transfer over to my actual 1RM. I'm guessing it's partially a mental block with going over 300 or something.0 -

Shrugging isn't obscure. How about "what's your 1RM for the Two-Hands Anyhow?" Aww yeah, bring back the old school, before racks and benches were a thing.

Damn, this thread makes me feel so weak. Great numbers y'all! I have never tried 1RMs, but these are my highest numbers during regular sets.
Squat - 172lbs/ 68kg (x15)
Bench - 140lbs/ 56kg (x10)
Deadlift - 185lbs/ 74kg (x10)
I'm 138pounds and 6'0" tall. I know, skinny AF and I need to up my game. Been working out for 2 years with a lot of gaps.0 -

If you want to feel strong, stop doing crazy amount of reps. Work closer to the 4-6 rep range and the increases in strength will occur much faster.3 -

Just to jump in so you don't feel alone...
I don't have 1RM, but these are my current numbers
Squat: 105lb x 15
Dead: 145lb x 10
Bench: 85lb x 6
I'm intentionally not trying to max weight, though - because I'm working on my form, and even though I can handle heavier, I don't want to injure myself with crap form.
You've got a solid base - I'd love to see how your weight progresses now that your form is getting there!
