Since I don't do any sports and love to lift I decided to join the powerlifting team at our school. After a month of training with the coach he tested us for our maxes and this i what I got...
Bench:280 (touch and go, no pause)
Squat:215x4
DL:275
I'm 160lbs and and 5'10". the reason my bench is hgiher than anything is I just started working my legs last summer. I still have chicken legs but my strength has definately improved. The first meet is in feb I think. I want to be able to do 300 on all lifts by then...so wish me luck lol. any tips for squating would be nice, lol. I have good form but my gains on squat are SSSSLLLLOOWWWW, lol.

yea. the athletic coach usually takes the football team to a powerflifting meet on the off season and this year he decided let anyone go to the meet and he's treeting it as if it is a team now. it's pretty cool, the only thing I don't like is he had us doing all 3 lifts in one day, three days a week. but now we've started "phase 2" so we are only going to be doing everything twice a week.
I already took a week off a couple weeks ago cause I pulled a muscle in my chest so I just decided to take it off from lifting all together.

oh my fault, i was thinking of deadlifts when i wrote that. just keep at it, gains will come.
