    I always liked the idea of age-adjusted "strength standards" as a way to measure myself. No doubt there should be variables for anthropomeric differences, but legend has it these numbers were not the result of scientific method. Personally, for simplicity I've settled on the multipliers like Nick is promoting. I've hit 80s, pressing for 90s by year end when I hit 65.

    Legend is incorrect. I vetted the old Kilgore standards against a couple of federations raw Master's winning lifts for the elite category back when I first got here some years ago. They tracked pretty closely then. Given that level of veracity, I took the lower ranking columns on faith.

    So do I. I'm not sure we can do better. Masters are such a heterogenous population that it's really the most elegant approach.

    50/100/150/200
    100/150/200/250
    135/225/315/405
    150/300/405/500

    Something like that. Four to six, say, stickers with numbers SOMETHING like that. Captures the range of Masters performance without degenerating into "trophy for everybody" silliness.

    Representing Press, bench, squat, deadlift:
    Dudes - 200/300/400/500
    Ladies - 100/155/225/315

    What should the Masters stickers be?
    Perfect!! I am excited that you guys are considering this....Gives us vintage (over 50) ladies a "goal" to work toward. Sometimes it's the little things that people strive for...like a sticker of weights achieved from your training program....lol ;-)

    THANK YOU!

    If you learn to use the search function, you'll learn otherwise.

    I like the idea of Wilks score patches, e.g. 200, 250, 300, etc.

    OK, I just did that under the phrase Kilgore's age adjusted strength standards. I didn't see anything turn up much later than 2011 on the entire board and then there's this.https://startingstrength.com/resourc...tml#post327040

    If you've got other information, I'm interested in learning about it in terms other than "legend has it."

    Did you use other and better search phrases? I also did a Google search using the same phrase.
