I guess I have to edit mine. My Flat Bench is projected because I can only do incline bench due to shoulder problems.

PR of 225x1 on incline bench press.

Bench Press: 258 (projected)

Deadlift: 445

Squat: 350

Hit some PR's this week.

Incline Bench went up to 235 tonight so my projected flat bench is now 270.

Squats are still the same I guess along with deadlift.


Whoops i accidentally edited this instead of quoting and posting a new one. Can I get my bench up to 270?

Awesome pressing Matt! I'm trying to get back to benching 270, I did manage it once a couple of years ago and never did it again. I'm sure I'll get there though.
Some of you guys in here are animals I swear.

Updated. Strong lifting you guys!

vegan_rossco, that 110 kg deadlift in your video looked easy, I'm sure you could add another 10 kg and pull it just as well. Don't rush it though - it's better to advance slowly and get your form dialed in properly.

Is this open for any lifters or just power lifting?

Just check the rules in the second post and put up your numbers! This is open to everyone, no matter why you train.

So I figured out how much I weight I need to get my total to to surpass Mini Forklift. If I maintain my bodyweight at 93.6 kg I need to improve my lift total from 484 kg/1065 lbs (present), to 532 kg/1170 lbs. Prior to this I never considered powerlifting at all and only really trained for just overall strength, fatloss, and aesthetic purposes, but I love a good challenge. Consider it on!

I'm just in it for the strength myself. The aesthetics are a nice side effect though! (My wife agrees 8) )

If I were to top the list, I'd need to add 52 kg to my total at the same body weight. Of course that's given that MF doesn't improve his lifts at all - which he undoubtedly will! 52 kg is probably around 6-8 months of lifting for me, on my current pace.

You and I are pretty close in both body weight and strength, so it will be cool to see who gets there first!
