WOAH NICE PROGRESS ;^)
Thanks. I know it's a long road ahead but it's something
After 8 months with 2 of them spent on unproductive ppl bullshit, I am finally a greenboi
been lifting for 4 months
Been lifting almost 2 years. But I actually got focused on it and got on a program last year and stopped doing machine only isolation exercises. I also ran SL for way too long. Then I fucked my rotator cuff in my left shoulder and haven't benched in about 4 months. I can OHP without pain but flat BB bench causes pain. Sucks. Who else here Tealman?
little over a year of serious lifting, just hit 405 on deadlift today and finally got 225 on bench 2 days ago. feelsgoodman
i aspire to be you
Hey guys, I've been running SS for 2 months, am I doing good?
i had shoulder surgery for a torn labrum in like september so my bench is lacking but just keep working brah
Why is my upper so shit lads
it's harder to progress your upper body than your lower body, do more volume or add accessories
you forgot to color the face
Thanks man, il try that.
whats a normal bench to squat ratio? im at 225 bench and 330 squat, does that sound about right?
Nope, i can nearly bench as much as i squat. 6'4
Wow it's almost like different people's lifts progress at different rates!
i know right
When a fatass with apt and weak core decides to weight train for 5 months.
>was finally green
>get injured at work
>come back from rehab purple
I wish I was dead
Whoops
Blue-green bois
Very aesthetic my friend
6 years
What does this look like in real life?
Not great. I look like a famine victim and my thighs look like I got liposuction.
my squat has been downhill since october
almost 3 years
t-thanks
but those colours don't really say anything about my shitty pecs insertions (they don't fully touch eachother Arnold style)
watt
how? post the numbers and lifts user
2 months SL5x5
should i count the weight of the bar?
4 months phraks gslp
I'm 4 inches shorter than you and we weight the same. Picture please
Yes count the weight of the bar and squeeze your ass and legs and core hard when overhead pressing. You can lift more than that no problem I believe in u
Holy fuck yes count the weight of the bar. Can't believe someone actually fell for that meme
How would you guys log a Yates row when the only option is Pendlay row? From what I understand, it's easier to pull heavier weight doing a Yates, so if I put 102.5lbs into SS that would be incorrect, right?
>so this is the power of vegetarians
Just go do some pendlay row and see how much you can lift
Grew up in a family that knew nothing about exercise, diet had close to zero protein content, spent several years doing no exercise but long runs
All of this added up to holocaust mode with an almost completely atrophied upper body
