IF you were going to make equivilents in the big lifts

[SlavikHavik]

What would you set them as?
just for the sake of argument and refrence

Ie: a 300lb bench is about a 450lb deadlift, and 405lb squat
A 405lb bench is like a 600lb deadlift and 545lb squat

etc

Really WAY to hard to say..umm
315
495
495

I think the best way for you to answer that question is to look at the top 100 lists. Then just scan across. For instance, you can see that number 20 on the 275 lb list equals.

804 squat
615 bench
727 deadlift

I love looking at this kind of data. The lists are at:

The numbers will vary by weight class. Generally you will find that lower weight classes have higher deadlifts relative to their other lifts and vise-versa for the very heavy classes. These numbers are also equipped. If you want non-equipped numbers, just subtract 50-150 lbs from the squat and bench numbers--more probably for the higher numbers (i.e. someone with an 800 squat can probably get more out of their equipment than someone with a 400 lb squat.) I wouldn't take much off of the deadlift numbers.

Yeah, it is tough to say, an a person's build has a lot to do with it. Like long arms can hinder the bench, but can help the deadlift, some guys with a bigger gut can use it to sort of push off when they squat and it helps them, also individual weak points come into play, and with respect to bench and squat if the equipment helps your weakpoint you get more, if not, you're out of luck. Like rbrown said, equipment isn't as much of a factor in deadlifting.

Personally, for an advanced trainee, I'd have to say it is acceptable for the squat to be about 50-100lbs more than the deadlift, and for the bench to be roughly 200lbs less than the squat. For me, my deadlift is by far my best lift, light years ahead of my squat, and I feel much more comfortable and natural deadlifting, but I was just speaking ideally.

impossible to say.

Too many variables to say for sure; how long youve been lifting; how long youve been doing each of the Big 3, individual strengths/weaknesses, personal biomechanics, etc.

Everybody is different....
