I've pretty much had these goals forever, and haven't gotten serious about them. I think I'm finally serious about 'em
Weights:
Squat 1RM 500lb
Deadlift 1RM 500+lb
No wraps, straps, or any of that junk, of course.
Bench 1Rm 225, 275, 315
I was doing 225 for reps before my shoulder surgery...but have lost it all. I have a long way to go. I've wanted to bench 315 since I was a kid - who doesn't? Not that important, but I will do it anyway.
Crossfit Total (CFT) 1225lb (this was the #1 CFT at the 2007 CF games by Connor Banks - the top 4 men had CFTs of 1000+)
Running:
Run 1 mile, <8min, <7min
Run 5k @ 8min/mile pace
400m <1:20
That's a good start. In all honesty, my #1 goal is the squat. It's my strong point, but even then, I've never come close to 500. My best was last year before surgery at I believe 415 or so. For running, I have a long way to go, but I think any "fit" man should be able to run a sub 8 minute mile at any time, and it'd be nice to be able to string those together for some distance. A single mile under 7 min would be mighty impressive.
Of course, I have to come to grips with the fact that I won't attain most of these goals at 250+ pounds. Ideally, I'd like to be around 225 and 10% body fat someday, but even if I was just below 15% I think I'd be thrilled...
