Your stats are so close to eachother. Mine are BP 175x6, squat 225x5, OH 105x5-7, deadlift 315x6. Row 145x7. Also I don't train for strength at all so I agree with her. I only have 9lbs on you with purely a high rep rep scheme. Lifting heavy isn't always the best. Especially not if you're looking to gain mass.0

Hmmm...
I squat 285 ...but I'm a girl.

My squat is 15 lbs less than yours, my deadlift is 35 lbs less and my row is 10 lbs more and I am a female who weights 30 lbs less than you do and I'm chronically ill and have just been lifting for 4 months after taking 10 months off because I almost died

I second this. That's why it irks me when I see posts on this forum that says "I saw someone at the gym lifting weights and I wanted to go over there and tell them that they need to lift HEAVY to get RESULTS!" Um, perhaps they were??0 -

Yep, just a quote. Maybe tongue in cheek humor doesn't translate well over the internet lol anyway I've only been lifting for about 4 weeks and seeing as i never once stepped foot in a weight room before it goes without saying I dont have a lot of friends to go to for advice, etc. Which was the whole purpose of this post to begin with (not to call anyone out or brag about 4 weeks worth of numbers lol)0 -

Since you're new to this whole thing, I just want you to have realistic goals going in. Based on where you say you are now and what you say your goals are, it looks like you want to put on 30lbs of muscle while dropping 7 lbs of fat (162 to 185, 13.6% to 8%) If this happens, it's more than likely going to take you YEARS which is fine...I just want you to know that going in. A realistic interim goal if you want to put on some muscle, would be 185 at like 18%. That would give you 11-12lbs of added muscle and then you can cut some fat from there and do the whole process over again. You're going to gain some fat with the muscle. Maintaining your current BF is nearly impossible while adding any significant muscle and actually dropping your bodyfat is just that much harder.0 -

So yeah- a little clue that it was a joke would have helped LOL
I totally agree with MrCloud- it's going to take some time. It's good to have long term goals- but realize- they are long term- and that means REALLY long term. And that's okay if you're willing to stick it through.0 -

Welcome, and good luck on your goals. Not sure why everyone jumped down your throat here.0

I used to focus on my 1RM numbers, but a shoulder injury last summer combined with approaching age 40 scared me into shifting my lifting plan to 10RM numbers instead. It's taking some getting used to, lifting a weight 10 times instead of just 2 or 3 times, lol. Still dialing in my numbers.
Oh, and just for thread continuity, my stats:
Age: 38.7
Ht: 5'9"
Wt: 192
BF: ??? (I'm guessing around 16-18%)
1RM (pre-injury): B-285, S-475, D-425
10RM (current): B-195, S-315, D-315 (Deadlift done in sets of 5)0 -

quote with no "quotes" doesn't register immediately to me. sorry not sorry. The point of the post was not clear- and he's new.
But yeah- I definitely don't lift.

Sure, but the intent behind him quoting it was a mystery. It sounded like he was bragging.0 -

Really been stuck at my current PR's for a while now. Eating at a deficit still so I don't see any major gains coming soon. Been trying to get down to 175 for a while now so I can have a clean slate to do a bulk/cut phase.
