When people say they lift heavy, how heavy do they mean?

I’ve seen it written a few times and I’m curious to know what kind of weight is considered heavy. I do strength training and am probably somewhere in the middle of my class in terms of strength, there are definitely women lifting much heavier (and lighter)than I am. I’m just in it for fitness.

Deadlift 70kg, Hip Thrust 100 kg, Squats 80kg, Bench 30kg, Push Press 22.5 kg

And you totally should be pleased with yourself! It's great to feel strong. I love the feeling of that progress too. And I like the odd session when things aren't moving so well and you feel how heavy the bar actually is that you normally lift.
