If your squat if legit, you should be able to deadlift alot more than 250 lbs.
Not that it matters but i'm sure you couldn't. Not yet anyway.Originally posted by drixsa

if i wanted to max it i am sure i could do double the weight
yea i could but then my lower back would be in a lot of pain to squeeze out 1 rep...not that it mattersOriginally posted by Templeton

my bench really isn't all that impressive, i have trained with several guys around my size who put me to shame. i'm 5'8", 165, and have been powerlifting for about 5 years. i also squat in the mid 400's and clean in the mid 200's (haven't maxed recently so not sure exactly where i am right now). if you want your lifts to go up quit doing curls and flyes and other pointless movements that do nothing but waste your time, forget the garbage you read in muscle and fiction, and train ****ing hard. read a lot and check out some of the Westside Barbell methods, because they work.
Amen to that! Curls aren't even the best bicep workout - I find chins and pullups to be much better, especially chins.Originally posted by Amorican23
