I'm not as strong as I used to be but I currently use around 50kg on an EZ bar without swinging and cheating
If using dumbbells it would be 20-25kg depending on how I feel.

14kg, finishing on failure at ten reps ate the moment. After some reading I might drop from 20,15,10 to something like 10, 8, 6 and a higher weight?

Depends on exercise, 50kgs on an EZ bar with good form. 25Kg dumbells on seated or 30Kg standing curls. Like Paul though I have lost alot of strength.
Its all about what you feel comfortable with though. Dont go by what others lift. Whatever you can squeeze 8-10 reps out on with a struggle/spot.

The good old swinging motion is a sure sign your lifting too much, if that aint a sign then putting your back out will be the next best thing, by then I think you will definately know lol

That way, you only lift what your capable of, instead of whaling a load up and hurting your back...
