no one is responding because they are too busy shouting "manlet" at people

225 is pretty normal among gym goers. I weigh 125 and can do 220 for one rep and can do 20 pull ups etc. That all sounds great, but 125 is fucking tiny so it doesn't really matter what my relative strength is. I could probably win in a fight versus people my own size but that's all I got going for me there

I've seen 1 dude squat 3 plates, and 1 other dude squat 4 plates at my gym.

Seen at least a couple people do 225+ on the bench though.

Check what numbers the people in your weight class are pulling out.

It's okay. Getting a 2 plate bench is expected to be done within a year of training by any healthy adult male. It's not impressive by any means. Every skinny nigger in my gym can bench 225 for a couple reps. It's the one big compound that normies train. Nobody will think anything of a 2 plate 1RM. Maybe if you're doing sets of 8-10. That's pretty good for 170 lbs, but not as 1RM.
