I know this is the bodybuilding section, but you guys should have at least a small goal of getting stronger; and you have the highest viewership/audience.
So I’m just going to make up some arbitrary standards that I think qualifies you as a strong person, but your sole concern is not strength - to the detriment of your health i.e. powerlifters.
Minimum:
Bench: 225 x 10
Squat: 315 x 10
Deadlift: 315 x 10
Clean: 225
If you can do all that, and run a 7 minute mile. You are a pretty strong guy in my book. If you can’t because of past injuries, well…in 4000 BC you either rehabbed or we put you down. So who can do this?
Intermediate standards:
Bench: 185 x 10
Squat: 225 x 10
Deadlift: 225 x 10
Clean: 135
8 minute mile
Are you top level or intermediate? If your not at either level, you need to earn your keep on this site.
“You don’t have to be a fantastic hero to do certain things - to compete. You can be just an ordinary chap, sufficiently motivated to reach challenging goals.”
Wanted to see how many people are actually strong around here. You can pick whatever standard, there are so many variations. But if you can squat 405 you should be able to do around 10 reps of 315, and vice versa. I think what I listed was a good baseline. Maybe proportionally 405 for 10 would have been better for deadlift, but ehhh.
