Guess I'm lucky cause I'm one of the guys promoting most of the gear and rarely have things been popping up but with @Perrin Aybara posting that 600 hundo hoody which I will purchase and not wear until I legitimately hit that number because I ain't no poser and this deadlift shirt I'll be paying like 50 bucks in shipping cause #canadaboarderrapesmeeverytime

I'm buying mine after so I don't jinx myself.
 
The problem is after you earn your 600lb shirt youll be looking towards a 700lb one.

I know, right? I was just saying this to @ruckin earlier, except I said seven plates instead of 700. Powerlifter problems....

Someday...

Let me ask a question, Im sure theres some science involved, but I figure its more opinion.

How much is reasonable for any person too be able to add to their 3 lift total? Not looking for an exact number, just ideas based on your experience, knowledge, etc.

Meaning I started around July last year and my Big 3 were at around 900 total. Now im at somewhere around 1185. Im trying to get to 1500 eventually, but I figure there has to be limits that a persons body can reach even on gear.

Im figuring most Pro PLers had pretty high numbers before PEDs.

I guess Im trying to be realistic about where I can get. Where did y'all start and how high do you think you can get, or are there no limits in your mind?
 
I started with a 205 bench 235 squat and a 365 deadlift 2 years and four cycles later I weigh the exact same but my BF is down 6% and I can now lift 315 bench 425 squat and 495 deadlift. If weight was to remain the same (under 183lb) I'd say my top end numbers are probably bench 365 squat 495-525 and deadlift 565-600. If body weight wasn't a factor and let's say I could go up to 205lb I would want 405 bench 585 squat and 700 deadlift.

I don't think there's an answer to this that any of us can apply to ourselves. Almost 300 pounds in six months is great progress though.

I was at around 1000 when I started training for PL almost two years ago. Took me a year to go from 1000 to around 1250 (just under 1300 with wraps). I made some small gains after that, but it'd slowed down and I kept hitting walls and having setbacks. Adding PEDs into the mix has been a huge jumpstart, so I'm really not sure of my limits anymore. Six months ago I'd have said I'd never be where I am now. I'm going to do my best to hit elite for my fed in the next few years, which is just over 1700. I believe that I can reach that, as long as I don't have any major injuries. Beyond that, I don't know.

I'm not sure that I have great strength genetics as much as drive and determination.

Just a ballpark figure I've heard, but all things being equal you can expect to gain half as much next year as you did this year on your numbers. I don't know how accurate that is, but maybe something to it.

I believe if you want 1500 you can get it though. It's no small number and beyond what most would dream of, but it's not in the realm of impossibility by any means.
 
Sorry I have been gone for a few days fellas. Classes have had me going a good 12 hours a day. Seeing all of this talk about equipment makes me want to role out all of my gear and post pics. The last time I actually collected everything, and placed it in a single area....well I realized that I have spent A LOT of money, and possibly TOO much. lol. Hell, I have several sets of knee, and wrist wraps that I have never even used. I couldn't even tell you why I bought many pieces of equipment that I have. One of these days I will get around to selling them. Along with a crap ton of other equipment I never use. Anyways, I hope everyone has been doing well,staying healthy, and injury free.
