Calling lightweights for comparison purposes.

What's going on guys?

It has been 6 weeks since I started SL 5x5 and I am loving the strength gains.

I wanted to know where I am standing in terms of strength for my weight (I know this is not a good measure).

What are the the numbers for Squat/ Deadlift/ Overhead Press/ Bench Press for people in 130-140lb bodyweight range.

My current stats:

Bodyweight: 134 lb
Squat: 160 lb
Deadlift: 160 lb
Overhead Press: 80 lb
Bench Press: 120 lb


Thanks!

That's solid progress, masuri. I think you have more numbers further right on the scale Subsistence posted than I did when six weeks into the program. Nice work!

Ok, so this is me:

Bodyweight: 62kg, ish (137lb, ish)
Squat: 95kg (209lb)
Deadlift: 85kg (187lb)
OHP: 27.5kg (60lb) - awful, I know. My worst lift.
Bench: 55kg (121lb) - I have you on this by 1lb

There you go

Or try:
http://www.enblom.org/cgi-bin/strength/standard
This is in KG and if you input your bodyweight it automatically calculates whats expected of a novice, intermediate etc.

(both are based on figures from Rippetoe's book)

Useful links. Nice to know I'm on track to be considered (or already considered) a novice in all the lifts, which is where I would expect to be in my 11th week.

Start a log here and hang out with the rest of us lightweights.
Good numbers btw. Something for me to strive for.
