    male 34

    deadlift 1 @ 370#
    squat 2 @ 250#
    bench press 1 @ 210

    goal for 2014

    deadlift 1 @ 400#
    squat 1 @ 300#
    bench press 1 @ 230#

    I would say right now bench press is my weakest of the three...

    Recent maxes (I've done more in the past)

    Bench 4 x 115lbs
    Squats 6 x 120lbs
    Deads 6 x 175lbs

    Yes, I know my bench are almost the same as my squats. It's sad.

    Male, 25 years old, 147lbs, 5'11''
    Dead: 315x1
    Bench: 225x1
    Squat: 185x5? never maxed it. but it's real weak

    I'm usually spending all my free time running or snowboarding, because that's all that I like to do. So lifting is off and on.
    Started lifting in 2008 at current height but was as thin as my new LED TV I just bought the other day at 118lbs. So I made some decent progress. And I'll be happy if I can manage to keep most of it.

    We got some strong people up in here... great job everyone.

    31M
    5"8
    178lbs

    Don't really train for max, but here are some numbers:

    BP: 2x 245lbs
    SQ: 2x 225lbs
    DL: 2x 275lbs

    Pretty sad that my bench is better then my squat. Currently working on some weakness. My deadlift isn't much better, but it's getting there.

    Bench 155 @ 3 reps
    Squat 175 for 10 reps
    DL 265 for 4 reps

    haven't 1 RPM in for ever.

    Sad.

    Oh well- have squat form issues- I fail this summer.

    Goals for this year are 200 bench (HA- ****ty elbow laughs at me)
    250 squat
    315 DL.

    Last tested ORM (in December)

    Squat: 215 lb

    Deadlift: 225 lb

    Bench: ??? I've never gotten close to a ORM, I'm around 70ish for reps right now though. My old gym didn't have a bench station, so I'm just now making progress on it.


    My goals for 2014 are pretty much to just maintain strength. I've got a full marathon in the fall calling my name...if I happen to decide not to run it, then the only goal I have is to keep lifting more.

    I am about 6-4lbs from GW and BF% so I should be 152-154 for the BW lifts...

    5'8", 190 lbs; 42 yo male

    Competition maxes:
    Squat = 310 lbs
    Bench = 225 lbs
    Deadlift = 410 lbs

    2014 year-end realistic Goals:
    Squat: 350 lbs
    Bench: 260 lbs
    Deadlift: 450 lbs

    2014 year-end "what-the-hell" goals:
    Squat: 375 lbs
    Bench: 275 lbs
    Deadlift: 500 lbs

    I'll be happy with the realistic goals. Heck, I'll be content with just getting stronger. But, the 500 DL is that brass ring for me now. Probably won't happen, so I won't stress over it. But it'd be nice.

    DL: 210 @ 1x5
    Squat: 180 @ 5x5
    Bench: 75 @ 5x5

    I haven't tested my max in a while. Maybe I should do that soon...

    Goals: anything more than that. (Stole this from a post above, but it's just so true for me)

    Male, 39, 6'1" 285lbs

    Last completed set this rotation was

    Bench 290 x3
    Deadlift 485 x 3
    Squat 425 x 3 (my battered knees filed a formal complaint with my brain the next day)

    My goal is to drop 20lbs and then push each lift up 15% or more by the end of the year. Hell, I don't even care about the weight. I just want to see that 500lb Olympic bar bend.

    Male 40, 6'1" 215lbs

    I haven' tried maxing yet as I work out at home and don't have a spotter, or a squat rack either.

    Bench - 205 2*10 and then usually 1*5-7

    Squat - 205 3*10

    Deadlift - Still need to start on those. Reading that section in "Starting Strength" now.

    Goal 225 3*10 bench
    225+ on Squat

    As far as deadlift, I don't even know where I'm at yet.

    42/M
    6' 177

    Bench: 200x1
    Squat: 235x1
    Dead: 300x3

    (I'm done testing 1RMs though. Every time I do, I find a new and creative way to tweak something. If I'm to PR heavier than this, it will be when I'm doing them for triples.)

    ETA: Goals? Continue progressing while remaining serious-injury-free.

    Well, yeah. I'm pretty sure that's why we Americans refuse to go metric. :wink:
