What is everyone's goal atm? My goal is to do 1 strict pull up. Doesn't sound like a lot but at 102KG it takes a lot to pull me up.
My long term goal is just to feel strong but I can't see myself continuing 5x5 beyond 120KG squat. Not sure what the alternative is though.

I’m working out twice a week to build up my ‘body armour’ again. Three years ago I was as fit as I ever was at almost 40. Wanted to weigh 80kg for the first time in my life (scrawny 6’1). After I succeeded I stopped lifting, stopped running, almost stopped cycling and after a year I did my back in and couldn’t really work out or mountainbike for over a year.
Started lifting again two months ago, started stretching/yoga four months ago, and I’ve been to a bike park three times.
Goal is being able to squat and deadlift every week without triggering my sciatic nerve and keep working out every week until I’m six feet under.
82kg bw right know. 50kg bench, 40 squat, 50 deadlift, 50 pendlay row, all sets of 8 with some reps in the tank because I’m shit scared of tweaking something again so I’m building up sloooooowww. And 4 sets of 8 chin-ups or 4 sets of 5 weighted. -
What is everyone's goal atm?
To have great posture, the best posture, posture that is so good that people talk about it behind my perfectly straight back. And to eat less biscuits.

What is everyone's goal atm?
Short term 200kg * 5 deadlift, 180kg * 1 safety squat bar squat.
Longer term - Shed 10-20kg bodyweight, get back to 8 BW pullups, 100kg * 5 bench, 80kg * 1 OHP.

Short term: fix my shoulder so I can get weight overhead properly. Improve overall work capacity
Longer term : build back to a 5 plate deadlift, 4 plate squat , 120kg bench and bodyweight OHP (currently 93kg)

Here's a list of exercises and the % vs bodyweight / age
I also think this may be biased towards those that lift weight as it would only account for those that take part in the 'study' which would only be those that would do weights really.
