What was yours? Mine was when I could finally do 3 sets of regular push ups. That was big for me as I had very little strength when I first started lidting weights.

To many little milestones adding to something bigger to think of any one in particular.

As a Powerlifter I work on new ones all the time and if I'm not breaking my own records then something is wrong in the equation.

I'll say this each Squat Milestone is my proudest as it's the hardest lift being a lot more technical then the other 2.
