My PB for bench is 140kg @ 110kg. My ratios are all messed up though because physio told me to stop squats/deads years back - getting back into them as of a few weeks ago and focussing on form (which was causing my knee troubles).
Yeah, I feel a bit wimpy in comparison to some of what features in this thread, but yesterday I achieved a goal I set at the start of the year. I set the aim to consistently bench press my bodyweight in sets, and not just as a 1RM. Yesterday I achieved that. I float between 70-71kg's BW, and hit 72kg's for 3 sets x 5 reps. Nothing too special, but good to conquer a goal.

Nice work on the bench bro - my bench goal (short term) is to get to pressing BW for reps (10) also - not there yet but not to far off - all in good time
Training 5x5 deadlifts at the moment, haven't really ever put much focus on deads over the years. So in a couple of weeks have gone from maximum 100x5.
