Please reply with your bodyweight and your max squat, bench, and deadlift. The ranking will be done by Wilk's Coefficient (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilks_Coefficient).

Every time your max in one of the lifts goes up, post a new reply and I'll periodically update the table, probably once or twice a week.

The table will be done in kilograms, so please include the lbs or kg tag with your weights so I know which ones to convert. I will round lbs-kg conversions down to the nearest .5 kg for all posts. I am not going to go back through previous postings to amend the table.

If you are like me and don't often test your max lifts, let me know your best set and I'll calculate your max based on Wendler's 1RM formula: 1RM = set weight * reps * 0.0333 + set weight. I know this isn't completely accurate, but it is close enough and this isn't a strict competition table.

Hopefully this will spur some friendly competition among those close in strength levels. Lets keep it civil and fun.

Please post your non-geared lifts only. Belts/chalk are fine, but no suits/straps/wraps please!

You cannot calculate a barbell bench from what you did with dumbbells, same as you cannot (accurately) derive a 1RM from a rep PB.
Would be like calculating your time for a 200m dash based on your 110m hurdles. It's just not the same.

Well first of all this table isn't just for barbell versions of the lifts or it at least isn't specified that it is. And secondly asparagus has stated that we can use Jim Wendell's calculation method to get our repped lifts to a reasonably accurate weight, it'd always been near enough accurate to me.. not everyone here is able to test maxes very often and don't want to.
If this table was a proper official powerlifting comp or something then of course I wouldn't even suggest it, but I want to get my lifts as accurate as I can to motivate myself to get stronger.

Anyways, I got 75Kg for 8 reps, which calculates at 94Kg. You don't have to change it though mate I don't mind

I'm in training to run a sub 3.30 marathon right now, so the top of the table spot is there for the taking :popcorn:

Good stuff, let's get down and dirty !!

Mellon · **Posted:** Sat Jan 11, 2014 7:53 pm

Thought this table had the same rules as the one on veganfitness.net except ranking lifters by wilk's score instead of absolute weight.
(didn't read the rules, tbh)

In this case, ignore what I said earlier

(though I would have to have a max bench of 126 kilos, then

- did 6 x 105 kg some time ago)

VSP · **Posted:** Sun Jan 12, 2014 4:58 pm

Cool--really good to see other strong vegans out there! Here's my most current stuff:

Weight - 160lbs/73kg
Squat - 445lbs/202.3kg (based on 405x3 squat)
Bench - 275lbs/125kg (actual tested 1rm)
Deadlift - 472lbs/215kg (based on 405x3 deadlift)
Total - 1192lbs/542kg

All rawz0rs, nothing but regular old clothes.

Oh snap lol. Looking forward to seeing how this table progresses as time goes on. It makes my heart happy to know there are other vegan lifters out there killing it too.

VSP will be in the lead by miles with a Wilks of 394. Strong stuff, congrats !!
Do you have any vids of you lifting mate? Would love to have a look at your style/technique seeing as you aren't that much bigger than I am in terms of bodyweight.

Updated.

VSP - welcome to the forum, table, and top of the list!

Mellon - I'd put down your estimated total if you hadn't tested your max :wink:

In any case, this is really just a friendly table. If we just put down competition lifts then a lot less people would participate. I would also rather the table just reflect people who are active in the forum, but then I would have to drop a lot of names from the list and it would look rather pathetic.

There's a lot of really strong people on this table, and I'm happy to be in such company.

Thanks guys. I agree, we're in good company here. I'm grateful for VBBF for bringing this community together =]

Miniforklift -- I have a few lifting videos on my YouTube channel but the majority of them aren't lifting. http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG0EzUG ... 3NQ/videos

Hey Asparagus! I need a couple things changed

I hit squats 10x145lbs which I calculated out to 193lbs or 87.5kg, and new deadlift 1RM tested out at 250lbs (113.5kg). Bodyweight stable. Thanks!!
