YOU weak or strong?

I'm working with 60s currently, 7-10 reps w/ good form. I'm not really that strong, just good at curls and a few other lifts for some reason.

Nice. I'm doing compound workouts recently. I'm going to see how well it works out. Glad to see fellow lifters in OT. :D

Physically speaking, how strong are you? I'm asking because I feel like I could snap any male in my school in two... Are men getting weaker?

I am no where near big lol. I'm only 185lbs 6ft. I have a good bit of muscle but I am still gaining. I'm around 11/12% body fat right now.

Edit- You sound like me body wise, 185, 6ft. Cut. no abs but nice triceps and deltoids and chest.

i'm stronger than the average person for my age/weight. i used to work out, then i kinda got out of it for awhile, but i'm trying to get back into a routine.

I am weak.

But my will is strong!

weak.

was strong once upon a time.

now all i'm focused on is just losing the weight, not building muscle mass.

eh, im gonna be honest and say that i think im an average strength. i love how people say "i can bench this amount of weight" What about deadlift? squat? pull ups? (and i dont mean chin ups) /rant. pygmahia5

I wanted to hit 225lbs on the squat and 275lbs on the deadlift before this years end...deadlift I think I'll get, but I have to lay off bent leg exercises and build up my hamstrings for a while.

I do a 3 day split for my weights plus 4 days dedicated to boxing/grappling and cardio.

I think i should be stronger than a normal man as i go to the gym

I personally feel I'm weak, but the people around me say I'm strong. Though I will say have manged to break some stuff that isn't suppoused to break when I'm angry.

Average-to-strong I guess.

But **** immune system makes me feel weak right now.

All 5' 4" and 130 LBs of pure muscle.

:lol:

Nope. You're just fat.

not nearly as strong as I would like to be [QUOTE="Fightingfan"]I can bench my weight plus 100lbs. One handed push ups with 100lb weight on back no problem.rawsavon

Example. I'm 185lbs, I can bench 285(5 reps).

Someone else is 285, they can bench 285(5 times)

I'm much weaker than most normal people. Most normal people can drive long distances to work and can work 10 to 11 hours every day. I can't do all those things which means I'm much weaker.

Not sure if I quite understand the difference, but wouldn't being "strong for my weight" mean my strength overall is higher percentage wise compared to someone who can bench their weight but is 100lbs heavier then me?

Example. I'm 185lbs, I can bench 285(5 reps).

Someone else is 285, they can bench 285(5 times)

one would be a % of your size
-smaller guys have an advantage due to the way bodies are constructed, your strength does not increase in a manner equivalent to size gains
-this is why smaller guys can do more full body reps on average (things like pullups, dips, pushups, etc)
-smaller guys are generally better able to lift a higher % of their own body weight

the other would be overall strength...total weight lifted (larger guys have the advantage)
-bigger guys are generally more likely to lift the most weight the most amount of times

In your example, you guys have equal overall strength, but you can lift a higher % of your weight
TC did not ask who can lift the most for their size (%). He asked who can lift the most

I don't think I'm that strong, really - I'm easily overpowered.

Well, maybe you have different perceptions of beauty! I'm the same, haha :P I don't fancy a particular type of guy!

I hope it goes well for you guys and you get to date her! :)

I have adequate strength. I believe in a well rounded approach. The best athletes in the world aren't necessarily the strongest. Unless they are compeating in olympic style, or power lifting. The best men, fighters, and athletes are balanced and highly proficent in numerous physical attributes.

I'm pretty strong because I do a lot of push-ups and sit-ups and I drink plenty of juice

Comparing how much you can lift compared to others is the road to failure. I lift weights and plan to until I die to keep healthy, clear my mind and for extra energy, not to satisfy my ego.
