Just thought I'd share for any weight-lifting ladies out there who need inspiration!

This girl is 110lbs, at 5'0". Her heaviest lifts are:

Clean & Jerk (1) = bodyweight x 1.10
Front Squat (1) = bw x 1.70
KB swing (4) = bw x 0.7181
Deadlift (1) = bw x 2.10
Bench press (3) = bw x 1

    That's pretty awesome...even though it's sad that your statement about 'most men' is true. ^_^

    I don't know if it's true >___>;

    I just wrote it because that's the name of the video. But thinking of the guys I usually see at my gym, I doubt they can do that! Maybe 2 can...

    Well, when you said 'most guys', I took it literally, and applied the thought to the entire male population. I am pretty sure that at least 50.1% of the men in the world would get smoked by this girl on the Wilk's scale, which would make your statement true. ;)

    My wife is just a few pounds behind her on the big 3 lifts. Took about 3 months to get there from no lifting at all. It's all about consistency and dedication.

    Is your wife 110lbs & 5'0" too? I hope it would only take 3 months, I feel like it would take me a YEAR. I calculated the weight % to my body weight (140lbs) and I'd have to do:

    - 154lbs clean & jerk (1)
    - 238lbs front squat (1)
    - 100.5lbs kb swing (4)
    - 294lbs deadlift (1)
    - 140lbs bench press (3)
