Major Lifts – 1RM

Lifting my max

Today’s workout was a VERY focused and extensive. 4 hours long and very calculated. I started the first of the year off with my 1RM’s for each of my major lifts so that I could start my powerlifting journey to competing. Keep in mind, I am very proud of my results and they have grown since the beginning of 2017 so I knew all my workouts played a part in how far I’ve come. Hopefully within the next 6 or so months, I will continue to see more strength increases with my new program I will be officially starting tomorrow. 

 

For those of you who do not know what 1RM means – it means my 1 rep max, the most amount of weight I can lift for 1 rep. 

 

Bench press: 130 lb ( 135 lb fail)

Barbell shoulder press: 85 lb (90 lb fail)

Barbell back squat: 200 lb (205 lb fail)

Barbell Romanian deadlift: 280 lb (285 lb fail)

Barbell sumo deadlift: 225 lb

You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL. My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.
