How much do you weigh, how long have you been strength training?0 -
Awesome job! Must feel great!0

Can u educate a poor soul who doesn't know what this means? :-). Ie what does pb mean? And did he increase your weights? Sigh. I see a trainer but really don't pay attention to what he writes down and what my weights are at. I show up and work out and let him set it all. So I am truly ignorant on these things but want to expand my knowledge. Please :-)0

Wow! Thanks ! And to the op - Congrats!
Eta darn auto correct :-)0 -
Jeez that's only barely less than what I did last workout. Then again, I've increased my weight every time and I've yet to come close to stalling, so who knows what I could really do.0

I weigh 99kg.
I had knee surgery at the end of Feb, and have been doing strength training after my recovery from then, starting pretty much from scratch.0 -

You should pay attention to what he writes! Set goals. I'll post a photo of my goals page.0 -
That makes two of us. I have no idea what this means. Could you please translate this for me so that I can may do the same thing as well? Thanks. :flowerforyou:0

lol! But like I said, no threat of stalling any time soon. I'm doing Starting Strength, and I've only been lifting for a month or 2. I expect to be squatting at or close to 300 by the end of the year.0 -

It means I did 6 squats with 90kgs on my shoulders. That's 198lbs.0 -
Here are my goals, I hope it's big enough to read:

Sounds like he was right. He knew you could do more so he neg motivated you.
I didn't do much more than you when I did squats this morning. Making a mental note to myself to not **** with you. You've got some serious leg strength0 -

Love this!0 -
Start writing your list of goals and show it to your trainer so he knows how to train you, and pay attention to the numbers, if your goal is to be strong, lift heavier each time. If its to run a certain distance, run further each time. Push.0

+1 on this!
you go girl - handle those squats and show 'em who's BOSS!0 -
That's awesome and thanks to those that saved me from having to look up the conversion:) . Silly rest of the whole world :glasses:0

Wow. Way to go.
That's more than I can squat.
...
*sigh*
Going to wallow in self-pity for a while tonight, then get back at it tomorrow.0 -

I weigh 99kg.
I had knee surgery at the end of Feb, and have been doing strength training after my recovery from then, starting pretty much from scratch.
I have bad knees. We have been working up to squats for the past 5 months. I have been squat pressing 30 lbs (not impressive) but those are not but to the floor squats. I just started those and can barely do 10 and my knees crunch all the way down
I hope j can do this some day! 0 -
GO GIRL!!0

I only know a few of the weights that I do, most of the machines I am clueless on, but found out those numbers are useless so because machines vary in terms of difficulty even at the same weight . I just started this week with bench presses.. whopping 65 lbs... and tricep extensions of 30. I dont remember/know the rest. Do you think with knee issues (not having them replaced). I can still do this?0

I squat to just past parallel. That's what my physio agreed to. If you have bad knees see a physio and get suggestions of things you can do, then test them.... If you are sore the next day (in you knee, not muscle wise) then rethink that activity.
I'm not allowed to do leg extensions or lunges. As long as my form is good, my knees don't hurt with squats.0 -

I think you just insulted me!!
Next step: body weight - yay you!0 -

Oh no, it was a comparasion thing with the young whipper snapper who said my PB was "barely less" than what he does. Promise!!0 -
That is awesome! OP, I will be thinking of you on leg day! :drinker:0
