Bench, Squat and seated Military?

I've been told a good measure of strength is:

Squat 2x BW
Bench 1.5x BW
Dead 2.5x Bw
Row 1.5x BW
Military = BW
Curl = .75 BW

I am working towards this and have a long way to go on some lifts while others are within reach.

I'll get a one armed pullup within a year.

What percentage of the population can lift like this?
 
bench 385
squat 405 bad knees have to wrap them like a mofo
255
I can also break your leg with a single leg kick. lol
 
Bench: 245 (tore up shoulder)
Squat: 285 (tore up knees, balls are too big...going on Deca to cure that)
Seated Mil press: 135 (back is crooked, one arm is shorter than the other, and the hump on my back gets in the way of sitting properly so I can't stand up straight)

Juz kiddin? gods rot! I've never done that test....I don't do "max" lifts, but my best PR is this:
Back Squat/Rom Deadlift superset: 270x32 reps /270x32 reps in 15 minutes. Bench/Ballistic KB rows superset: 225x38 reps / 2-70lb KBx 38reps in 15min.
Standing Military press / wide grip pull ups (with -50lb assist) superset:
2-53lb KB's X 50 reps.... 50 reps of assisted wg pull ups... in 15 mintues.

I don't know...it's not all about 1 or 2 rep max lifts.... But it's MY personal best...and getting better! I'm moving up to 70lb KB's mil press next month!!! WEEK 3 of my very first cycle...I do think I'm getting stronger!

Well there's no such thing as a seated military anyway.
Military press = standing OVP with heals together.

Arnold's Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding must be wrong then. So must be the Muscle and Fitness poster located in my gym.
 
Bench: 355
squat: 550 for 6 reps, no idea what 1 rep max would be
Seated shoulder press: 255 for 6 reps.
Deadlift: 636 for 3 reps.

fuck, knackered just writing that................

Thing is, form suffers doing any kind of max weight, and form is king.
