Where to start?

[TheCr1msonK1ng]

Greetings everyone. I am new to the starting strength program and looking to get started with it. For the past year and a half I've been doing Crossfit so I am no stranger the lifts in the Starting Strength program.

With beginning the starting strength program, I am looking for weights to begin with. I am 6'4" 240lbs and 39 years old.

My most recent numbers for lifts are as follows:
1rm Back squat = 285 (highbar, if that matters)
1rm bench = 175 (this has always been a weak area for me)
1rm power clean - 205
1rm strict press - 140
1rm Deadlift - 365

Do you have the book? It details the procedure for finding your starting weights. Hint: it's not based off a % of your __RM.

I just got it a few days ago. I will look through the book to see if i can find the info.

This doesn't surprise me, for some reason. Read the book thoroughly; don't skim.
