nobody can answer that, some are stronger on squats than deadlift and vice versa..

[strykn]

well not exact ratio, but general ratio compared to your bodyweight... i found this http://www.crossfit.com/cf-journal/WLSTANDARDS.pdf , what u guys think :X

[hal0g0dv2]

^^ that is pretty good, i am elite for most, not power clean and mill press

[jeffh]

were you reading the womans stats?


im intermediate closing in on advance on most

[hal0g0dv2]

its crazy how i see myself working out until the day i die kinda thing, and like i have pretty impressive numbers for lifts well for most, and like i still have 30 years of solid lifting left but how it take ages to get to like 7 plates on bench and squats and deads and stuff like that, and how your body still has so much more to grow, was just talking to some guy at the gym about it today for a bit, its like a uphill battle for ever haha

[RRxtar]

its a super uphill battle that starts with "wanting to feel better" but leaves you feeling 70% all the time (something always sore or whatever). then you remember that 70% of what you're worth now is still 5 times what you were before you started.

Dragging my ass to the gym today. WoW is pwning me

Still, I tend to have great workouts when I feel like this. I hope that's the case today, because I'm doing dips, OH squats, and pullups today.

[StealthFighter]

my gym is gonna be closed now anyways until the new year.

so i'm just gonna focus on SMR with my pvc pipe and do this chad waterbury program until then. basically pistols, hand walkouts and single leg deadlifts.

A lot more focused going myself.

[hal0g0dv2]

solo is always better, but i still like going with partner still just as good more or less

[keepz1]

i have doing a spilt leg workout for about a month now and it looks like im going to bowling balls back there..cant stop touching my self lol..my wife finds it weird

[RRxtar]

always go with a partner. focus doesnt mean shit if you're lifting below your capabilities because you dont have a spotter.

[hotong]

my partner is gone for 3 weeks fuuuuuuuu

How does focus mean shit?

If you need a spotter, ask someone.

[jeffh]

me and rrxtar train together
if you can avoid chatting about BS and just put work in, having a spotter that knows you and what you lift is way better than some random at the gym
