what do you consider 'Elite' strength for the gym...

[delta]

meaning basically you never rarely, if ever, see anybody go past it
Imma say and i got to a LA Fitness in downtown miami

Bench - 205
Squat - 275
Deadlift (rarely see anybody do this) - 365
Incline Bench - 185

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Flat bench: 315
Squats: 225 (MFers don't squat at my gym. SAD!)
Deadlifts: 315 with good form

My bench is but I'm deep into elite status with my squats/deads. If someone moves more weight than my on those lifts I talk to them

I got to a small box gym and it’s mostly women and middle age guys (including me)in the early AM. So the numbers are even lower than what you have.

 

[Diondon]

At my gym its a lot of casuals lol
bench: 6 plates
Deadlift: 8 plates
Squat: 6 plates

To be clear, are we talking about "for reps" or "max"?

 

[OneTimeforTheMind]

FOR MAX AT CASUAL GYMS
Squat 405 most only doing 225 lol
Deadlift 405 I do that in my sleep for reps
Bench 405 I only do incline and weighted dips tho

315/400/500

Most of the day old dudes bench 275-365 for half reps.

Two or three people in my gym squat up to four plates legit.

I'm the only person I've seen go over 5 plates on DL in my gym.

 

[Ron_Mexico]

I’d say

1.5/2xbw bench
2.5xbw squat
3xbw deadlift

I’m 173lbs and max at 285 bench, 315 squat, and 455 deadlifts.

My squats are garbage, gotta start hitting them 2x a week. Been focusing more on getting volume than strength though.

Current gym.

I've seen <5 people do the following for 5 or more reps:

Bench: 315
Squat: 365
DL: 455
Standing Press: 225
BB Row: 275
Pull/chin up: 45lb plate, though BW is a factor


Most common numbers for 5 or more reps

Bench: 185-225
Squat: 225-275
DL: 225
St. Press: 95
BB Row: 135
Pull/chin up: n/a

None of this is an issue if you go to a Gold's Gym, you'll soon feel like the weakest person there, which is a great motivator.


In casual gyms you'll the leg press is going to be the most weight you can put on anything.

Then again, the casual lifter here isn't competing to be Mr. Olympia.

Gold's Gym I lift at usually consists of casuals. Tho I usually go early in the morning before work. Lately its been later in the evening and you do see an increase in weight, but still a lot of casuals.

Numbers are pretty much what most of yall already posted...

Bench: 315
Squat: 365
DL: 455

I honestly don't pay much attention cuz I be in my zone most of the time lol. Tho I have gotten stares at the weight I been pushing . I mostly been repping lately, not a lot of trying my max.

 

[Bledswole]

You got some weak mofo's in your gym....

Bench-405: I saw it regularly when I went to a gym in encino(rich people who work out are on all type of steroids )
Squat: 4 plates, once in a while I see someone hit 3 plates like me, but rarely over 4....
Deadlift: 5 plates
Incline bench= never pay attention I dont do them


But in general I rarely see peeps do pull-ups, dips and push-ups....

Funny thing is mofo's cant wait to do bicep curls in the power rack
If people most only knew the cheat code to getting big arms. Oh well can't help every one
