That sounds about right, but curls are one exercise were people form differs so much that sometimes curl weight is very relative to the person and their form, 50 for high reps with text book form is more impressive than swinging 65's just imo.

Also you need to consider the arm-length, someone with longer arms has more difficulty with curling 60lbs than someone with short arms.

I would usually agree, but sometimes i think taller folk have better leverage for curls, usually you see suck at pressing movements and then somewhat exceed expectations in curls...maybe its just at my gym.
