I only started weight training 6 or so months ago, I could be a lot better than where I am. Have been focusing very much on getting the technique down right first before upping the weights.
I need some goals to train towards!!

Atm I leg press 320lb, squat 44lb, deadlift 44lb, bench 44lb, tricep press 100lb, lat pull down 85lb, chest press 120lb.

So... How much do you lift?

ETA : This is for 3 sets of 10, not my one rep max.

    You can triceps press 100 pounds? Way to go! That's amazing!

    I generally do a Body Pump class rather than intensive lifting, so I never max out. But I generally do 40-50 lb squats, lunges, dead lifts, 30 lb chest press, 20 lb triceps/biceps/shoulders. Now that you've posted this topic I'm thinking i should try to up my lifting a bit outside of the class.

    generally i've been adding 5 pounds to each set i do so i'm rarely lifting the same weight twice in a workout and usually never the same amount or the next workout. so my next workout i plan to start here

    squats : 145
    barbell row: 110
    deadlifts: 145
    DB shoulder press: 30
    lat pulldown: 120
    lunges: 60
    step up: 50

    i'm also doing NROL4W. i had to sub out bb rows for the seated rows because for some reason the seated row t is way easier for me than the BB row. the cable machine only goes to 190 # and i was able to lift that, so i switched to the BB row since there's no cap on the weight i can load on the bar.

    Thanks!

    I can hold more with steps up and lunges but I can't keep my balance just yet. LOL I guess as my core gets stronger that will be better, you think?


    It seemed like it took 10 minutes for me to do dead lifts. Does it take anyone that long? I'm trying to keep proper form. Should I tap the weight on the floor or what?
