Are there any websites that provide a chart for measuring the strength of each of your muscles, i.e. via bench press, bar curl, squat eyc.

Yeah. I mean one that measures what is considered good vs. weak etc. I have seen some occasionally, but don't remember where. They use your bodyweight and lift strength to measure your overall strength. It's usually on a scale of poor, moderate, good, great etc.

I have seen one, some mags publish them every now and again, but you shouldn't be concerned with how much your doing, but how your doing it. If you can do your body weight 3 or 4 times your on the right track
heres the article by muscle and fitness dec 2003 "Measuring up"
squats military bench
275 205 225 dedicated gym rat
365 275 315 local b.m.o.c(?)
455 315 365 state champ
545+ 365+ 425+ olympia bound
then they also have the same thing for curls, one arm rows, skull crushers but how many actually max of these??
