Powerlifting Standards

[james-nutrition]

I would eventually like to maybe have a go at a powerlifting meet more for personal satisfaction than to actually compete but obviously don't want to be miles behind everyone. What would be good raw lifts at 210lbs?

I know its about PBs but what would seem like a reasonable performance?

Realizing that a small, relatively weak girl is going to warm up with your max and humiliate you before you ever get on the platform.

Get that through your head, and then ask the question again.

There are always tons of people of all strength levels at a powerlifting meet, that's the beauty of it. You don't have to be an elite lifter to do a meet.

Here's the results in the 220 class from the last meet I did...

Squat	Bench	Deadlift
287	215	358
320	165	402
413	237	441
369	248	480
496	325	513
612	331	623

Just sign up and do it, good chance you won't be the weakest guy there.

Cheers looking at that my bench would be pretty decent, squat and DL need work

500 squat, 330 bench, 550+ DL and you'd be a very competitive raw "amateur" lifter. A guy I train with squats around 530, benches 340, and pulls around 550 at 205, and he got 2nd at our USAPL state meet. The top not amateur guys are going to be squatting 600+, benching 455, and pulling over 700 raw. At 6' you'll need to put on more mass to really be a competitive lifter.
