Not really. Like @Ohene said, the dudes that's really doing it will post up in threads and you can tell who's about that life and who's not.

Some of us actually have receipts you can pull. :usure:

Ehh I don’t max out, due to fear of injury as I get older. I feel confident with doing these numbers for at least two reps without a spotter.

Bench - 235 :mjcry:
Squat - 330
Deadlift - 405

6’1 205 pounds
Then don’t. But these numbers aren’t ”bad”.

This about what I expect from anyone who’s fairly consistent.

Not knocking you but where do these fears come from? If you listen to your body and aren't reckless you should be fine.

Getting older lol. I’m 32 so relatively still young but last thing I want to deal with is an injury when I have a family now.
As someone who is almost 10 years older than you and lifts around the same numbers, the best advice I can give you is trust your body and never go up until you are comfortable and no more than 5-10 lbs depending on the lift. If I can only bench 235 for two reps this session, stay there until I was able to lift 235 for at least 5 good reps. Once I am able to, I would think about moving up to 240 depending on my goal. If after a few session I'm still unable to get to a point where 235 feels comfortable, I may drop the way down and work back up or switch up the routine. Now if you goal is 235 and you are satisfied with that, it's perfectly fine to stay there. Nothing wrong with that. I just think injuries typically occur from people do unsafe things like injury their body, not lifting properly, or trying to lift way more weight than they can handle. At the end of the day you can get injured lifting 400 lbs or 40 lbs if you are reckless. Sorry for the long rant. Salute to you for the numbers you putting up and like always stay safe:salute::salute::salute::salute:

Training maxes help with this. You can set your training max to 85-90% of your actual 1 rep max and make great gains. What program are you following?
