When I read lifting, I interpreted as lifting women/pussy.
Not sure how well this thread will play out as it is not exactly a bodybuilding forum.

These are maxes but to keep things motivational you can post the most amount of weight you have done for reps as well.

These were my results the last time I tested for football.
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 208 (I'm around 202-205 now)
Squat (1 rep max): 425
Bench press (1 rep max): 330
Bench Reps (on 225lbs): 20
We didn't test deadlift, but I put up 200lbs on the standing military press.
Other than the bench reps and military press (both of which I should still be ale to do at that level), I would subtract about 10lbs from each of these numbers to get my current level (maybe take 20 off the squat). I haven't stopped training, but I'm not doing it as heavily as I did last year so I'd expect a slight dip.

Better question:
Whats the purpose of this thread besides a e-peen measuring contest?
There's already a half dozen threads sharing info on various types of strength training and weight lifting, as well as a few more threads about what to eat to get gains, what to eat to lose while gaining, ect.

As a kid, I would use threads like these online (often at bodybuilding.com or wherever) to set goals for myself as I progressed. I think I can say it helped me along a bit.

I see plenty of swollen guys who hit the gym and put up big numbers, but they can't do 5 pushups. They can't do a pullup. They can't do leg lifts. Can't do 10 dips. They cant do a full (hamstrings touch the calves) squat with their heels touching.
Big weights =/= real strength. Don't be that guy. I'm not trying to be a hater, but check yourself. If you can't control your own body weight, why are you putting up 325 lbs?
And Hades, love the avatar. Great fucking character.

bullshit, if a guy can throw up big numbers on the rack he can do a push up a pull up and a dip, he may be inflexible, he may not ever be able to bend down and touch his toes but show me a guy who can deadlift 3bills + that cant do 5 push ups, a pull up...everyone loves to take a shot at the swole bros but the ones pushing around serious weight are strong, you can argue that theyre not functional for day to day living or athletic purposes, dont ask them to jog a mile necessarily but they can do bodyweight exercises. Its the posers the ones who flare their lats when they walk and work the show muscles only, dont know what leg days are that are pushing around baby weights for the amount of stuff theyre taking that may not be able to do the bodyweight stuff but if youre talking a serious lifter and gym rat its cake. Dont confuse the 2, just cause the posers grunting twice as loudly as the guy throwing up 4 plates aside doesnt mean hes a lifter lol

Most of the big dudes that I have seen throwing around many plates on the squatting rack, deadlift, or the bench press have trouble doing a pullup or more than six or seven close-handed pushups. Haven't met one who could do a proper bridge yet either. These are the same guys who have to take several aspirin a day just to function.

really? at 6'4 260 or so with the numbers i posted I can 25 chest to floor push ups. the pull ups are a little harder given the weight but with a little kip I can do several. I can do about 3 dead hang pull ups per set.
if you just squat and dead, though, your upper body will be left out.
bench also wont help much on pull ups.
that is why you gotta do cleans too.
and, duh, work on pull ups and push ups
