Figured this might be a fun thread.
I will be maxing out on the 3 PLs with some friends Saturday of next week, just as kind of a fun competition.
Bench is tough 'n go but PLing standard otherwise (arch is acceptable as long as butt stays in contact). Squat is also to PLing depth. DL is sumo or conventional (I'll do conventional).
I have (pretty much) never Benched, DLed or SQed. I did learn the technique a few years ago, so I know how to do them. But haven't done them at all otherwise. We can do warm-up sets and that's about all the practice I'll get.
I am 140 lbs, 5'5'', 23 years old, male. Have trained pretty religiously with Calisthenics for 7 years now.
So the thread itself. I'm curious as to what people would estimate my 1RM for the lifts based on those parameters ^ (or lack thereof). Mainly, what do you think are reasonable 1RM that you estimate I would hit? Whoever gets closest, wins... eternal bragging rights I suppose.
I think the forum has some discussions about how strength transfer from discipline to discipline (or how it doesn't!), so figured it might be a fun thread where people try to make estimates, see how many I impress/disappoint haha.
It's good to just to give me an idea of what numbers make sense to try to shoot for. So definitely helpful for me as well.
Again, just a fun thread.
