So this has been puzzling me for some time and I need some logic here.
In regards to how much you bench, then how much should you be able, and how much should you be able to squat/dead lift?
Where can you determining overall body strength and how is it measured.
If TC and the rest of the staff could chime in I would appreciate it.
There’s an article about how much you can bench in relation to your squat, deadlift, etc. if that’s what you’re asking:
If you can bench 300 pounds, how much should you be able to squat, deadlift, clean, or push press? According to one man, they’re all related. Here’s how.

I’m confused. I thought you were asking about the relationship between the 3 like 50 Caliber said. After I re-read your post…???
Are you asking about the big 3 relationship, or relative strength determined by lifting numbers? Or something else?
Little help?
no guys, i think he’s talking about your “power level”.
and only way you can tell is w/ a scouter scanner.
Why does it say in the article that you should be able to bench more than you front squat? I thought it was the other way around.
I know it’s different for everyone, but that is one thing that has always confused me. Front squat more than bench?

Why not just go to the gym and lift as much as you can for those exercises and then write it down?
Should be a lot more accurate that some formula off the net. Who cares how much you “should” lift anyway.
It’s not how much you should lift, it’s overall strength. If you have a weak back you will bench less.
So I want to know if i can bench 305 for three reps, what weight should i be rowing for three reps and then how much should i be squatting for three reps. Just relational overall strength. What shows that i have equal strength?

What would you expect your “overall body strength” to be measured in? I kinda see where you’re coming from, but think this through a bit more and come back.
bench+squat+deadlift = POWER LEVEL!!!
