200 lbs is not that great. (my upper body is garbage but I could do that when i was lifting. I'm not a great runner, although I was talented.) I talked to someone the other day who met your numbers, and he was a good but third tier runner. 415 is better than 200.
weight training + running??? wrote:
OK, I will not be vague. I am 5'8'' 145 pounds. I would like squat (a real squat) twice my body weight and bench press 200 pounds. I ideal goals for running would be 2:00/4:15 over 800/1500 metres.
Current stats:
- 245 full squat, 190 bench press
- 2:06 800 m (last year)
- unknown 1500 m, very doubtful I could run sub 4:40 since I just started doing distance runs
