Am I the most balanced lifter on the misc?

My current #’s

Squats: 315x3
Deadlift: 315x3
Bench: 315x1

I may can get 315x3 on the bench if I had a spotter and my preworkout was on fire.
LOL @ people who follow politics

A squat and deadlift hardly better than your bench is very unbalanced.

That's not really balanced

If your squat is 315, you should bench 225 and dead 405

If your dead is 315, you should squat 275 and bench 185

If your bench is 315, you should squat 405 and dead 495

Everybody is different but these are generally the ratios for powerlifting standards and also relative to world records for each of the three lifts which is a proxy for maximum human lifting potential

Solid post OP
"Science is predicated on the assumption of determinism. Scientists presume that the universe, or at least the part of it they intend to probe with methods of science, is a lawful and orderly place in which all phenomena occur as a result of other events."
