i seen this chart the other day and thought it was interesting. figured it would be cool to see which category some of you fall in, that is if we can get someone to be honest about their stats on a forum...

how would you go about benching 343? and if thats elite for weighing 181? then at one point i was super elite lol according to this chart id be somewhere between advance and elite when it comes to bench, not so sure i like the chart tho seem rather "retarded" in imo.
Junior Member
the bench was the only chart that seemed low to me, i fell right at the elite level, but the other ones (squat, deads, clean, etc) i was around 50lbs short.
it said only 2% fall into the elite category on the lifts.

lol who came up with this anyways and who determines elite?

I agree, elite bench should be double body weight atleast.Originally Posted by dips

Ridiculous chart, to say the least!!! Those numbers are way too low for elite, IMO.
Kawigirl, I like your thinking! LOL!!! Cold or no, I'm well beyond elite! LOL!!!!!

Agree, at a power-lifting meet a lot of those "elite" numbers would be low even for a small local meet.

And before the gear bashers chime in on this, these numbers would be ridiculously low at even RAW meets. I train high school kids that have these numbers.

after you lol

tht chart is complete BS.
to give you an idea, at senior class i squatted 260kgs and dlifted 270kgs in competition @ 87.6 kg body weight and im far from elite, but according to the chart im ahead of 125kg squat class and 110kg dlift class!!
Knowledgeable Member
Those number are not that high for elite, says I'm elite on squats.....I do like that.

oooh...apparently someone misjudges kawigirl!!!
Junior Member
if there are going to be a lot of elite lifters in one place, i suppose that this would be the place to find them.
Anabolic Member
I took this over to some of the powerlifting and strongman sites, and boy, oh boy...it was the biggest joke of the day!!!

Don't say that, we have many fragile egos here you know....

Those numbers are based off of peer groups with a minimum of 12 weeks of training to be included into the data. To say the least, these numbers are skewed in the sense of todays numbers. Most of this data was collected in the 70's and 80s when really weight training was not as popular or as advanced as it is today. Think of it this way, if you took 100 guys at random off the street and had them perform a 1rm, you could basically arrive at roughly the same statistical data.
