Im assuming you've been training long before then though. What bodyweight was that at.
my upper body is useless (unless its pushups or rowing) but I can do 134kg leg press with 1 leg (can also calf press 106 reps with 138.6kg / 205lb)

Yeahhh been training for 2 year ish, not really done much deadlifting, maybe a session every 1-2 months. I think I was about 86kg. Iv got the video of me doing it somewhere.

Lol started this and didn't even say what mine was.
Mine was first time I deadlifted 180kg. Deadlifted 200kg since then but the first time I hit 4 plates was a momentous occasion.

Bout 78 I think I was a lil' chubby then (still kinda am but meh). Took me about 2 years or just under. When I started I could deadlift 50kg for a grind.
