    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!

    I'm only 3 weeks into Stronglifts 5x5 and I'm tiny (5'1 and very narrow framed) so my weights don't look all that impressive right now!

    Squats - 60lb
    Bench - 40lb
    Barbell rows (with dumbbells, one arm at a time) - 30lb each side
    Overhead press - 30lb
    Deadlift - 80lb

    I'm 5'6". Most of these numbers were at 130-135. Currently I'm at 124 and am trying to figure out new maxes.

    Squat: 270 (ugly). I think my real best was 242.5 for a triple.
    Bench: 132.5
    Deadlift: 315
    Front squat: 170
    Overhead press: 92.5
    Power clean:120 (that was actually at 120lbs. I haven't done them in quite a while)

    am I reading this righ- your dead lift is 100 pounds LIGHTER than your squat? or are those backwards? Because that seems strange- deadlift will almost always be a heavier lift than a squat.

    if not kudo's to you!!!

    Yep, you read it right. I can't get past 155 without rounding my back. I probably could lift heavier, but not with proper form.
