I'm thinking most of the guys here are huge so I'm curious what some of your personal best lifts are. Make sure you say how tall, weight, etc.

Here's one for me:

Squat
465 lbs
180lbs
5'5" (I think I was 6'0" before I started to squat)

Not a huge lift, but I wasn't on anything at all. Maybe this winter (if the old body can take it) we'll give 500 a shot.

Hmmm. lets see. It all really depends on form with some lifts - sloppy like Ronnie, or DoggCrapp style - nice n' controlled:

-Squat: 545 x 20 reps (last 1 sucked)
-Stiff-legged Deadlift: I think I've done 495 x 6 before.
-DL lockout (from just above knee): 7 plates (675) x 3 reps (w/ straps!)
-BO Row: 365 x 6 I think (have gone heavier, but Ronnie Coleman style LOL)
-Weighted pull-ups bodyweight + 3 plates for 6 reps (its been a while)
-Dips with 4 plates before (broke the dip belt twice at the same gym within 1 week LOL I was a on a day pass both times.)

B-boy,

What is wrong with pulling sumo. That is a perfectly legitimate way to pull.

my point exactly bro, but people at my gym think im cheating or something cause im short, hell i don't know maybe their just jeoulous cause they can't get it off the freakin floor, but i see it as a deadlift is a deadlift no matter what style you use, you should use the stance most advantageous to you!

If you're talkin' about PL'ing or just gettin' the damn lift done, if you could just limbo under the damn bar, grab it and pull it an inch off the ground to a lock-out, that that'd be fine by me!!! LOL!
