For a guy +80kg or so, this is what I'd say too.

However, wherever you are, progress is what you want more than anything.

I think the link is unreliable. My squat is 'elite' and my bench and deadlift are 'advanced'.

But the bodyweight to weight thing is still the factor for me, though. If I saw some weedy 5 foot 4 person start benching 100, even for one rep; I'd be pretty impressed.

squat 140

bench 120

dead 180

dependent on environment, at my current gym iv only seen the above lifted 2-3 times in a year, if i saw someone lifting those at ESBB i wouldnt look twice.

Too True ! Depends on where you have come from, where you are at the moment and where you wish to end as to what you call respectable.

Personally if I see someone doing good quality reps or a 1RM at a weight ahead of me then I will look and ask questions because I could possibly learn something to get myself to that level.
