    Pretty new to it (only started in like... January? late December? and we take too much time off), but here we go. Also, we only do 3x5 sets, which I'm trying to talk them into 5x5's. I may go back to 3x8's at least.

    I'm 4'11", 123 lbs, and it's nice to see a few serious lady lifters doing similar weights as me, as I was feeling SUPER puny. And now I don't :) As someone said, gotta start somewhere.

    Squats: 85 lbs
    Bench: 60 lbs
    Deads: 85 lbs
    OHPs: 50 lbs (am stuck here :(:(:( )

    Mine are all using free weights/standing squat rack (olympic bar behind back), for the person who was curious.

    Squats : 65 lbs ( not much, but hey, you gotta start somewhere! )
    LegPress : 180 lbs
    Standing Calf raise : 230 lbs

    :)

    That squat size is no start baby! Good job!!!! :))

    When gals are putting up these squat numbers....what machine or how are you doing these? With weights to the side? Or barbell on shoulders?

    My squat #s reflect an olympic [long] bar in the squat racks.

    My last Crossfit Total from a couple of weeks ago (all using a barbell):

    Overhead Press: 115 pounds
    Low Bar Back Squat: 235 pounds
    Deadlift: 305 pounds

    Sorry, my height is 5'6". Weight is 225 (that's a work in progress, obviously). I've been Crossfitting off and on (the off parts are due to non-CF related injuries) for 18 months. Before that I had never touched a barbell in my life.

    Anyone worried about lifting heavy and bulking up, don't. It really isn't going to happen without specific effort to do that. My husband's cousin is a professional bodybuilder and she requires a very specific diet and exercise regime! Also, I am 5'7" and lift heavy and am certainly not a bodybuilder! Three movements I have just PR'd on are Overhead Press: 105lbs, Back Squat: 155lbs, and Deadlift: 195lbs. Lifting gives great definition and makes you feel great! I highly recommend it!
