how do my strengt compare?
I'm a male, 174cm and about 72kg. I'm in my 30s. I have never been very physically active, but recently have been a member at a gym for approx a year and a half. I know I'm quite weak compared to average men, but I'm curious about how I do strengthvise compared to average women/ girls, both untrained/ trained.
I use 5x5 model of lifting. - Squat: 70kg 5x5 - Deadlift, 100kg , 5x5 - Benchpress, 47,5kg, 5x5 - Military press / shoulder press, 32,5kg, 5x5 - Pull-ups (overhand grip, i can do 5-6 with good technique) -Push ups ( i can do about 25) |

On the other hand, your bench press number is weak. Many untrained women can walk in off the street and do 45-50kg. Your squats and deadlift are on par.

I think the ops strength is quite low Squats : Male novice for weight, Female Intermediate 50-60% of female lifters are stronger. I won't go through the rest but I see a lot of women non professional outlifting the op in the gym. I'd say 50-60% of all women would be stronger. I remember when I was early 20s never gymed, I had similar stats |

They were probably gymnasts.

If your shoulders and grip can manage to hold 100kg deadlift as you take it up, you should be able to BP 50% more with just a little more pushing the boundaries. Pull ups & Push ups just work on them. You're young enough to still make some good progression. Should easily be able to get up to 40-50+ press ups and 10+ pull ups with your weight. As to comparison with 'average' woman, it depends what refer to.. Genuine 'Average' untrained woman in the street won't be anywhere near on most of those.. Average gym going type (Cardio, classes & some basic machines/weights) would go close on some, and average woman doing more proper weight training would outperform you on some. I can't think when I last saw a woman at gym do 100kg deadlifts, but 70kg squat and 50kg+ BP for sure, and girls I know can do more press ups and pull ups. |

Re: how do my strengt compare?
First off - ignore any strength indicator websites, they don't look at the full picture. For example, let's say you have a metal plate in your shoulder which makes shoulder work difficult - it doesn't take that into account, it just spits out numbers.
Secondly there's no such things as an "average, trained girl". If the girl trains for strength, she isn't average. If you're asking how do you compare to regular girls who go to the gym, just to try and keep fit, that's different. You're stronger than they are, but you're also bigger. I will say any serious lifter girl at your size would eclipse your numbers pretty easily. I myself have met plenty of women who easily outlift me, but they were always serious about their lifting. I don't mean to sound harsh in any way, but for 1.5 yrs your overhead press and your bench aren't quite where they should be, in my opinion. |

For short-term goals, I would try to get bench up to maybe 65kg and shoulder press up to 45kg. Squat could probably get close to deadlift, there's a big gap there to work on. |
