My husband and I were discussing weight lifting last night and we were trying to notice how much most women lift in the gym, because he says I get funny looks sometimes. So I thought I would ask the MFP peeps, since everyone on here is hardcore.This is what I can do for 8-12 reps:
Squat - 125#
Deadlift - 100# (I can probably do more with straps)
Overhead trip extension (2hands) - 30#-35#
Military shoulder press (dumbbells) - 70#
Incline press (dumbbells) - 70#
Bicep curls (dumbbells) - 22.5#
Squat - 125#
Deadlift - 100# (I can probably do more with straps)
Overhead trip extension (2hands) - 30#-35#
Military shoulder press (dumbbells) - 70#
Incline press (dumbbells) - 70#
Bicep curls (dumbbells) - 22.5#
