Been training properly since May and as of this week my 1rm are...

Bench - 122.5
Squat - 170 (with a belt)
Deadlift - 220 (with chalk)

Weight - 102kg

Need to get that bench press up!

Only filmed the squat and dead but I'll add the vids later. Hope you can trust me on the bench.

Why? If anything, your squat is a little low in relation to your deadlift.

SMed · 5 Feb 2012 at 13:57

Yeah, squat seems a little low for those lifts. Nice progress since May though.

JaWalks · 5 Feb 2012 at 14:01

Just that bench is probably my favourite lift and means more to me. But yeah I admit I need to get more motivated on squat day. I hate leg day.

Heya,

Please update my bench to 143kg (raw). Am at 87.5kg currently.

Cheers mate

edit: just realised I hadn't updated my squat, max I managed last summer before the hammy went was 134. A small increase, but it all helps

Good work Tommy, just need to work on having a squat more than your bench press

Yeah.

ACL reconstruction and muniscus surgery somewhat hinders that right now.

LiE · 22 Feb 2012 at 10:26

ah fair enough

Isolation on the legs is fine, but over a prolonged period if I do large compounds 1/2 times a week on it, it really starts playing up

Will buy something to strap it up with so it feels more robust.

Watch this space, Squat will be up there in coming months

LiE · 28 Feb 2012 at 18:31

Update please

LiE -------- 160 / 172.5 / 230(b) ------ [81] ---- 562.5

tom_e · 28 Feb 2012 at 18:39

All updated

LiE · 28 Feb 2012 at 18:44

Thanks. Could you change the (s) on the DL to (B), no longer use straps but use a belt now.

LiE · 2 Mar 2012 at 18:22

New squat PB tonight, also dropped my bench press PB to 155 because I'm not happy with the previous 160 attempt.

LiE -------- 155 / 200(B) / 230(B) ------ [81] ---- 585

Pigeon_Killer · 2 Mar 2012 at 18:31

Sure you don't want to drop it to 150?

Fantastic lifts for your BW!

LiE · 2 Mar 2012 at 18:34

Thanks

The 160 was pretty bad tbh, the 155 was tidy!

LiE · 2 Mar 2012 at 18:55

We should get some more videos in here of people's maxes. Would be great to see things like form and technique.

I'll start.
Bench - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x4LmhXuTeE
Deadlift - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UEgnR514Go
Squat - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wEy_yOEP6E

stiv121 · 2 Mar 2012 at 19:56

Not got videos but would really like to get some but still scared of asking somone to video me

Been focusing on cutting at the moment but have still gained a little strength.

Bench is still 100kg but I've not gone for a max in ages.
Squat 110kg
Deadlift 155kg (B)
Bodyweight is down to 65kg!

so...

Stiv121 -------- 100 / 110 / 155 ------ [65] ---- 365

dod · 10 Mar 2012 at 19:26

quick update, bench up, my weight down

I think I could add to the squat and deadlift but I'll just keep doing what I'm doing for now.

dod -------- 70+/ 110+ / 120+-------- [82] ---- 300

T1Cybernetic · 14 Mar 2012 at 21:48

Ha ha I came to check up on the totals and only just found this newer thread

I am out of action for a few more weeks but with 445KG total I am confident I can crush that when I get my ass back in the saddle. Plus I've put on a few pounds though which might affect the balance of things

In a good way hopefully...

Djdom56 · 14 Mar 2012 at 22:02

I get grumpy reading this thread because my 460kg total is from almost a year ago and if it wasn't for silly injuries I'd have completely smashed it by now :mad:
