Post Your 2018 Lifting Goals

[Andy Maddison]

M/46/5'5/180
Squat ~300x5x3
Deadlift ~300x5
Bench ~207x5x3
Press ~114x5x3

Have been doing NLP since July. Getting towards the end. Currently not squatting due to hip injury. I actually have no idea what's realistically attainable in the next year of training if I stay relatively free of injury.

M/64/6'2"/263 CURRENTLY
Squat 270x5x3 205
Deadlift 315x5 252
Bench 170x5x3 75 (injury)
Press 120x5x3 75 (injury)

Couple of injuries and a couple of self inflicted problems.

Last year I made zero progress.
For 2018, it would be nice to be injury-free. Or, at least, to get injured only after making some progress.
If I had to put a number on it, I would be glad, no, ecstatic, to get a 150Kg squat (PR is 143Kg, aka 315 pounds, back in Dec 2016) and a 70Kg Press (current is 66Kg, ditto).

48yr, 6', 200#, been training since June 2009.

Frustrating hobby, this one.

Also aiming to take 11 or 12 pounds off the body weight total. Let's see how it goes.

My goal is to show up for 90% of scheduled lifting sessions in 2018. I.e. no layoffs and restarts.

I succeeded at this for the first time in 2017 (96% show-up rate) and had my best lifting year ever. Want to keep on making slow progress and not injuring myself.

As far as specific lifts my immediate goals are:

Press - 135 lbs
Bench - 225 lbs
Squat - 315 lbs
Deadlift - 405 lbs

These is my exact goals as well along with gain 15# of muscle mass.
