I hit 315lb squat x2 last weekend, all time PR, and 315lbs for DL. I've hit the DL in the past (thank you Shieko) but I'm getting back to the gym after 6 months of couch sitting.

anyone still in this? I'm just getting back into squatting after a knee injury and hit 225x3, which is the same as my PR lol. I have a ways to go but I know I can hit it in less than a year if I'm diligent with mobility work.

120kg x 8 today, and I felt good for two more, which allegedly puts me in the 150 - 160kg range. Will set my max as 140kg for next cycle, double that at 5 weeks in, then hit 130kg for something in the 8 to 12 range for week 6. It'll be the third run through of this program, and it's worked great http://www.T-Nation.com/...eadlift_program

Same for me. Hit 275x2 recently. I'm sure I could hit 300 if I kept my form a little more consistent. Soon it'll be within reach...

Wondering where 100kg x 15 on the deadlift puts me.. Haven't maxed out lately though

136kg x 2 today.
140kg x 2 in 2 weeks - it will be crushed

TADA!

Yeah, technically it's only 308lbs, but it's 3 plates for a double. I'm out.
