dont know but ill just give you some numbers after working out off and on for years at about 32 years old and 2 years of working out I was able to do 305 one rep. It didnt buy me anything except a bad back and a fond memory. Forget the numbers, stay flexible and train cardio.

I'm old, started late, so "not yet" after two years. Got my deadlift up to 400 though, so wasn't slacking. I'm sure a young guy would have faster results.

Right now 22 and at 45+30 each side , trying to reach 2 plates each side

Are you talking about 225 ? Took me a few months. Soon as I was able to hit 205 for more than 10 reps, I knew I was ready to go up but I would rather do dumbbells more.

I am only up to two plates at the buffet, not the gym.

What is the weight of 1 plate?

I started at 19 already able to 1RM 205 so it didn't take long. I recommend focusing on lifting 5x5 with 70% of your 1RPM. If u can do that fo 75% or 3x3 with 80-85% Most important is every time u go to the gym you lift more than last time. If u can do 5x5 with 135 next time try it with 140. If u can do the workout make it harder next time

If I made a post that said “mile!” and asked everyone their fastest mile time I’d look pretty whack and out of place. This post is the same exact thing but more acceptable because it is more relatable with “masculine” discussion? Nothing really wrong with it but I just gotta point out how it’s kind of silly

Hmm...since really doing the exercise frequently, I'd say two years.
