;-) haha.

It's a case of Schrodinger's cat! We won't know which of us is right till Chussen comes back and clarifies things.

Thanks to all that cleaned this thread up, and congtats Katie on being made a mod.

I may start a thread describing how I train the girls at PTC. Not directly advising someone what to do, merely to give some of you girls what others are doing.

You are definitely in the minority in gyms and dont get to witness that many female lifters.

It will not be advice, so no need to attack me, just something to read.

I will have to ask some one at the gym tomorrow. It is written in white pen on the ends of all the bars with plates. They write the number on the plates. They start at say 30 & go right up.....

110 feels quite heavy to me, I do 12 reps just. It's probably only 50 kgs tho. I will get back to you.

OMG - Katie I saw that your name was in red below today & was curious

. Hey Congratulations Girl!

I'm betting it's in kgs, it would fit with all the rest of your stats we've seen, and your physique.

12 reps with 110kg is fairly hefty!!

I was thinking possibly 50kg's, not trying to take anything away from you Chussen! I just don't get why any gyms in Australia would use lbs instead of kg's?

lol..Please start this thread markos, I would appreciate your advice.

katie · 16-09-2009, 11:15 PM

I second that!

I highly doubt any gym has a preloaded bar to 242lbs lol, it has to be 110lbs, not kg.

Chussen · 17-09-2009, 10:24 PM

There is no way known it's 110kgs, but I am pretty sure it's 50-55kgs. Upright rows today were on a 50, so I am safely guessing they were really 25kg as it wasn't that heavy.

Ummmm, Josh, the heaviest I've ever deadlifted is 40kg. I know it's not a lot, but try doing 50 reps, I was buggered by the end.

That said, I did pick up a 40kg and a 32 kg KB the other day, and that wasn't too bad, I wonder if I could deadlift 60-70kg. I'll report back soon

Katie,
How have you been going with your deadlift??? Any improvement???
