Your bench is alright, your squat and Deads are very poor in comparison.

Maybe average in the BB'ing world but compared to the general public, that is as strong as an Ox.

Yep as the guys have said mate, you have a good bench and shoulder press - need to work on the lower body exercises though

Weird how people have different strengths at different lifts.  Comparing myself to Leerc, he benches more than I can dream of, but my deads are a over 20ks more than his.   Strange old thing.

No, single ply centurian about two sizes too big, lol.  I've done 300kg and could do more now with just a belt and wraps but I like the hip/core stability you get from the suit.

I heard your spotter was doing a set of partial deads and had worked up to 150kg on the final set.

Thank you,  funnily enough when I train alone my bench is only 170.

My point being what is the point of having a spotted bench PB?

Re:how strong are you ? - 15 November 2009 21:51
I've no idea, If my spotters touched the bar without my say so, they would need it surgically removed from their sphincters!

They help me off with the bar, that's it, hands are kept away.

Re:how strong are you ? - 16 November 2009 00:58
My bench and shoulder press is very weak in comparrison to my deads / squats - see sig.
Currently shoulder press 34kg for 7, couldn't imagine doing the 45's for a long time.
I personally think your bench is a 'bit' low compared to your shoulder press if it's a single and shoulder press is for reps.

Re:how strong are you ? - 16 November 2009 08:37

When you say 45kg DB shoulder press - are you saying 45kg a dumbell or 45kg total? 

me as of last week
100kg unspotted bench
155kg dead
60kg military

I think I could pinch out more of a bench but I have a fear of maiming without a spot.

Surely a spotter doesn't help you lift? Therefore you still lift the max weight yourself?

On the rare occasions I get a spotter he guides the bar off and then hovers incase of a fail.

Re:how strong are you ? - 16 November 2009 09:37
Indeed, I've seen many people claim a new pb when a spotter has aided them, even if it's slight it's no pb!
Spotting is fine for a liftoff and saftey precautions, they shouldn't  add to the lift though.
