@menshealthmag: Are you 2-3-4 strong? If you’re looking for a way to see if your gym numbers are enough start here: Two plates on the bench for a rep, three on a squat, four on a deadlift. Pat Davidson what this is and why it matters on #strongtalk. Link in bio for the full ep.

I think the 2-3-4 rule is indeed the easiest way to standardize what we consider “strong”. BUT - I do think these numbers are abstract, because a 5’5 140lbs dude lifting 2-3-4 is far more impressive than a 6’3 225+ dude. Its all relative, but for the general public I think it’s absolutely reasonable.

I was a 4-5-6 guy, but I'm in my 50's now so I'm happy to still be a 2-3-4 guy. Strength for longevity is my goal now.

More than two plates on bench but my hip and back problems have prevented me from reaching those numbers on squat and deadlift it’s actually so depressing I’ve been though surgery and so much pt but nothing has worked
