You heard it here first.
Anything less than the IPF worlds standard is unworthy as a goal
Only on AusBB
I was just putting it into perspective, a 66 kg man pulls 271. Then he says that 226 is strong... Maybe if your a 50kg woman
Australia's strongest* woman only deadlifts 180 at 50 :O
*TBC
A 500lb deadlift is more than 99% of the human race can do
99% of the population either dont know how to train properly, or dont train at all...
Those numbers as generally set to be hit in your first year of training as a bare minimum of 12 months of training. As for a measurment of strength, of you talk to anyone who knows what they are on about it will always be compared to bodyweight. Benching 130 at 60kgs is respectable, benching 130 at 120kgs is a disgrace haha there is a sticky thread in the strength section on strength standards, check it out, its a good way to set up goals an look at progression300-400-500 didn't come about as a measure for how good someone is at powerlifting, just happens it's for the same lifts.
It's an old Hardgainer concept. Hardgainer being a long running magazine about bodybuilding and strength training.
The idea is that any hardgainer (someone who's not particularly genetically gifted) can reach a 300lb bench, 400lb squat and 500lb deadlift if they put in enough work. It's something that gets used as a goal by a lot of people.
Obviously for different people and different body types the numbers might be a bit out of whack. My squat is about the same as my deadlift, so I hit the number for the squat way before I did the other two.

Of course you're not an elite powerlifter if you can only lift that amount in a comp (assuming you're not small). But you're not weak either.
There aren't many people in most gyms who can bench 300 and squat 400 and deadlift 500, even less if you think about ordinary gym goers training for a physique or strength, but not for a powerlifting meet.
Those numbers as generally set to be hit in your first year of training as a bare minimum of 12 months of training.
So why have you not hit any of them?
Fuck you talk some shit cal.
