Squat: 420
Bench: 160
Deadlift: 430

Total: 1010 @ 181 for a wilks of 413.60

That's insane. There's *no way* I could ever do that (steroid free) raw.
Don't sell yourself short on the bench press. Jennifer Thompson benched 280lbs raw at 132 (and I seriously doubt that she has ever touched anabolics). If you stick with lifting, I bet you can get up to 200. It takes time and dedication.

DAMN that's sick.

Yeah, I do sell myself pretty short on benching, but I also have a lot of technique to learn too.

How long have you been lifting? Its not that long has it? As strong as your squat and deadlifts are, I see no reason why you won't also have a big bench as long as you stay consistent.

I'd love to join this, but as my old maxes were only 1142 and I'm nowhere near them at the moment I guess I'll have to let you guys have all the fun.

Wilks does NOT work across the sexes.

A good raw goal for a 180lb girl is 315/205/335.

I don't know what that would be wilks wise but probably low 400's.

Also, I whole heartedly approve of this thread. This should be a good contest.

Whatever stops you from doing that "conditioning" stuff you talked about. Your maxes are way higher than they currently are too, so don't worry about being behind at the start.

NK, since you aren't in the contest due to the extremely diesel nature of your strength, and your experience as an IPF lifter, would you be the official judge for passing questionable lifts? Obviously if they don't supply adequate camera footage to make a call you can shoot it down.
