Makes sense, 200 lbs is pretty weak for a deadlift.

It depends tbh, I am a (late?) teen, and when I started, I couldn’t even bench a bar without hurting myself, I can now bench 140, I am proud of it but it will probably be very unimpressive for someone who started at 90

Bro I'm in the same boat as you, I just started lifting about a month and a half ago and I could barely move our Olympic bar, now I'm moving weight I literally thought I'd never touch. It's still laughably low for anyone who's been moderately athletic/ strong their whole lives but it starts somewhere right?

It’s a journey, we all start somewhere, the best are the ones who keep moving forward

Hell yeah. Congrats on 200 bro, I just hit 115 this week and I was only shooting for 100 😤 haha

Yes, it depends if you're weak.

Maybe OP only weighs 80 lb and then that's a pretty solid DL. If OP is like 150... there is room for growth we will say.
